Chris Fillar

Born in Strongsville, Ohio and raised in Michigan with Cleveland sports flowing through my veins. I was captivated by the Indians in the 90′s and became a diehard Browns, Tribe, Cavs and Buckeyes fan from afar. Growing up in enemy territory makes for a very interesting perspective of the games! Ecstatic to return to my hometown for the launch of 92.3 The Fan from my job as Sports Director for multiple stations in Parkersburg and Wheeling, WV. I also have a healthy obsession with movies, trivia and golf. Favorite Cleveland athlete: Omar Vizquel.
