That's sweet, father and son.

[@mattjahnke239]

I think that's great! I look at this way; It's his first trial to see what type of journalist he's going to be. To walk in his father's footsteps. To sit behind the anchor's desk. To test the waters, so to speak. Look at Bill Balizza over at Channel 2. Same thing, except he's a field reporter, not a desk man.

Man he was part of my childhood. He was always a calm person he will be missed.

[@theapocalypse5752]

Wow! Looks like ABC13 inherited Rascon’s clone. Jacob is a splitting image of his dad: from voice, looks, mannerisms, etc. But you’ll be missed, Art Rascon. Congratulations on your retirement! 🥳🎉🎊🥳

Looks

[@arthurtrevino9844]

Art, you remind me of Dave Ward. You are a true professional, and we knew that what you told us was the "TRUTH". God Bless you and your Family

[@Bessie-ff7rs]

One career ended and the other began 👍🏾 on the same day wow.

[@christiansantos7164]

Your a fine man, Art. You’re such an exemplary human being. Thank you for inspiring us.

This is one of those, "I'm not crying, you're crying." moments... How incredible... I live in Atlanta and this makes me sad that I missed watching Mr. Rascon as I was growing up; he had absolutely no fear. Beautiful tribute from his twin, and I must say that my favorite part was seeing him in Ohio State gear! O-H!!! Wishing you a wonderful retirement, Sir... I don't think anyone is going to enjoy it more than those grandkids ❤- & congrats to Jacob!

[@kary1106]

What a blessing for the Rascon family. Wishing you Many more blessings to you and family!

[@anthonyb2223]

[@lucathesadman]

If I were the son I would’ve said he inspired me as well lol

[@anthonyb2223]

I won’t give up

[@sldjtjbrndns]

aw rip art rascon he used to anchor the car chases with andy bass back in 2009 - march 28 2016 now we only have those dumb ones

[@lucathesadman]

Kinda weird that I’m born the year he settled into channel 13, or how he’s around my parents age and already a grandfather to so many grandkids meanwhile my parents will never be grandkids ever (I don’t want kids) LOL

[@gilramirez5069]

[@captinbeyond]

Passing along the Art of reading a teleprompter and occasionally injecting your liberal viewpoints... wow, this is historic

[@nertski3238]

Ahhhh nepotism at its finest!
