Luckily, this had a happy ending so we can joke about it. This all started when Molly E. Sullivan, a radio and TV broadcaster in Las Vegas tweeted this APB about Brent Musburger who was supposed to make an appearance on ESPN Radio last night.

Of course, this all led to several jokes on Twitter. I had to chime in and speculate on Brent’s whereabouts.

And a couple of people chimed in with “The Hangover” theme as well.

Well, the great Lisa Horne of FoxSports.com has Musburger’s cell phone number, called him and informed him that he was missing. Fortunately, it was just a misunderstanding. Brent thought his appearance was tonight and not last night and she informed Molly.

For her part, Molly was relieved.

But I still thought “The Hangover” theme was the perfect explanation.

So Twitter can actually find missing people, Dan Shaughnessy be damned. Lisa sums up the whole experience for us.
So at least this has a good resolution. Still funny thinking about it.
