Chuck Lott - Live Auctioneer for PTO Gala Fundraiser

Chuck was the perfect addition to our elementary school PTO gala live auction. Chuck’s enthusiasm helped to pump the crowd up to bid competitively on our items and enabled us to achieve our fundraising goal. Chuck was very responsive to emails leading up to the event. He arrived early and was incredibly personable. He did a fantastic job of hyping the guests with his commanding voice and his bubbly personality. Our goal was to raise funds to install a gravel running track for our school's running club and Chuck did a great job of showing his excitement since he is a former collegiate track athlete. We would absolutely recommend Chuck for any live auction fundraising events!

Fall Invitational Special Olympics New York

Chuck did a fantastic job, well prepared, well spoken, and brought a lot of energy to our Opening Ceremonies. Able to pivot and adjust to changes on the fly. Very personable with all staff, athletes, coaches, and volunteers in attendance.

Special Olympics New York + Chuck Lott

Chuck is an absolute wonder and a natural talent! We reached out to Chuck to emcee the opening ceremonies for one of our signature city-wide competitions in October (2022)-- From the moment the first email was exchanged, until the job was completed, Chuck handled every step with professionalism and an unmatched level of grace and poise. The event was scripted, so he could've read from the script and let that be it, but he didn't-- he put an emphasis on learning the event, studying up on our organization and was genuinely engaged with our staff, volunteers, athletes and CEO, who was very impressed. Chuck is a professional that operates at a high level, and matches that with presence, and his ability to stay "in the moment".

Chuck Lott as MC for a Day Retreat

I would recommend Chuck whole heartedly for any MC role - be it a fun team building lead or a more structured dinner with speakers. Chuck has a voice that demands attention and signals "something is about to happen so listen up". It is warm, friendly and geared towards his audience. He has a knack for reading the room and working it. He is a quick study and can read a script or ad hoc announcements real time.

True Pro - 5 Stars Plus More!

Chuck is a true pro that knows how to take control of a crowd and make them feel the energy! He is also very coachable when something needs to be done a specific way (think sponsorship requirements).

Lastly, an underrated thing about Chuck is he pitches in on the little things and helps elevate the staff to another level. He's a rare find for talent and I would, and have already booked him again!

About

Chuck has over a decade of experience and expertise in events of all types and sizes. Chuck made his national TV debut in March of 2022 on ESPN as Play by Play announcer for UCA High School and College Cheerleading National Championships. He’s a regular at Madison Square Garden, handling In-Arena Host duties for college basketball and is the first and only host for the Big East Men's Basketball Tournament. He is a fan favorite at MetLife Stadium, serving as In-Game Host for The New York Guardians in 2020 and the New York Jets in 2021. He also served as In Game Host for The Charlotte Hornets in (phone number hidden)2 making him the only person to serve as host in The NFL & NBA in the same season!

Delivery is important and Chuck is one of the best in the game. As the only major addition to the New York Jets fan experience for the 2021 NFL season, Chuck played a big role in taking the NFL's "Voice of the Fan" ranking from #29 in 2019 to #11 the very next season. He was able to do this by his engaging interview skills, "feel good" smile, and booming voice.

Chuck's talent spans further than "sports." He began his career hosting 8+ hour long cheerleading competitions that included DJ responsibilities, the awards, and all entertainment between the action. He is an expert at maintaining his energy and the attention of his audience and that has become synonymous with his entire career on the mic. His roles in live sports are entertainment and helped him pivot into corporate and private events. Working with charities as host and auctioneer, Chuck has helped raise over 5 million dollars since 2014. Chuck has also served as moderator for conferences across the Metro NYC area. Chuck is a quick study and has a knack for reading the room and working it!
