Kenny Mayne is a sports journalist, Model and comedian for ESPN. He currently appears as host of Kenny Mayne's Wider World of Sports on ESPN.com, and he appeared as a weekly contributor to "Sunday NFL Countdown" with his weekly "Mayne Event" segment.
A native of Kent, Washington, Mayne was an honorable mention junior college All-American quarterback at Wenatchee Valley Community College Wenatchee, WA in 1978. Kenny Mayne graduated from UNLV in 1982, with a degree in Broadcasting, where he was the back-up quarterback and ahead of future NFL star Randall Cunningham on the depth chart. While at UNLV, Mayne played football for two years and later signed as a free agent with the Seattle Seahawks.
Mayne started at ESPN in 1994 as a SportSmash anchor on ESPN2, and soon moved over to the main network. He served, for a time, as co-anchor of the 11PM SportsCenter with Dan Patrick after Keith Olbermann left ESPN. He left SportsCenter two years later, moving to an assortment of late night ESPN shows which were usually re-aired throughout the next morning. Included in his repertoire was the game show 2 Minute Drill.
Mayne is now most often seen as the host for ABC and ESPN's horse racing events. He provided offbeat feature stories on Sunday NFL Countdown in a weekly segment called The Mayne Event.
Beginning October 2, 2008, Mayne starred in ESPN's first scripted web series, Mayne Street, playing the real version of himself.
In 2011 ESPN launched Kenny Mayne's Wider World of Sports, a series of videos on ESPN.com highlighting Mayne's trips around the world. In the first season the show visited seven countries (England, Ireland, Brazil, South Africa, Thailand, and New Zealand) with Mayne participating in events like the King's Cup Elephant Polo tournament in Thailand, the world's longest par-3 hole (Extreme 19) in South Africa and a road bowling match in Ireland. A television version of Kenny Mayne's Wider World of Sports, featuring highlights from the internet series, aired on ESPN/ABC in December 2011. Season 2 of Wider World of Sports featured visits to the Netherlands for canal jumping, Nicaragua for volcano boarding, Italy for the Palio di Siena horse race, Bosnia and Herzegovina for bridge diving at Stari Most, Switzerland for hornussen, and Scotland for the Highland Games.
Both seasons of Kenny Mayne's Wider World of Sports have been honored in the Online Film and Video category of the Webby Awards, which annually recognize the best websites, videos, apps, and social media on the internet.
Mayne returned to SportsCenter on October 15, 2013 after a five-year absence. A new contract with ESPN signed earlier that month set Mayne to anchor 70 episodes of SportsCenter and host 10 special features per year through 2015.
