Jose Griñan was the birthday boy today on the FOX 26 KRIV Houston morning newscast as he celebrates his 70th trip around the sun!
All morning, the FOX 26 morning crew had clips of Houston notables (including George Clinton of Parliament Funkadelic) wishing Griñan happy day.
Newly minted Chief Meteorologist Mike Iscovitz acted stunned that the senior anchor was the big 7-0 based on his youthful looks!
And beyond his birthday milestone, Griñan will soon be celebrating 30 years at KRIV! That's right, Griñan was the first anchor for the new KRIV morning news back in August of 1993.
Longtime Houstonians will remember that back then, FOX 26 was on Westheimer near where Central Market stands today.
Happy birthday Jose!
