Looking for a certain race call....
 
Don't remember where or when it was. Must have been fairly(like in the last few years) recently. The race was a fairly non-descript race that featured an earthquake. The race caller was extremely funny. Anyone remember?

Thanks,
Suzanne

Vic Stauffer at Hollywood Park you mean? I tried to find the clip on youtube, but no luck.

It was definitely Vic Stauffer's call from Hollywood. Was watching TVG when it happened. Vic just joined this board, so maybe he has a link to it.

My memory is foggy, but do remember an incident. My best guess is Santa Anita or Hollywood. I'll ask around.

For some reason I can only get the audio from the link that Robfla posted(thanks, by the way!). And I can only get the audio for part of the race. I just re-signed up for race replays at TVG today(and thanks to Steve's Belmont picks already doubled my $$$)so will have to find it there in the archives.

One of Vic's classics. Thanks Kiri.

Thanks Kiri,

That's great!! I wish the very last comment was there(I know, I'm *never* satisfied!!)....he says something like "its gonna be a photo for third, I don't know, nor care who got it"

Great, great call Vic!!

Thanks guys!

They went past my house. So I watched it there. Was at the Little League Park all day for the 2nd day of the All-Star Tourney. I'm operating on about 4 1/2 hours of sleep, but I'm still wired from last night. What a great time!! Thanks again for everything. You did an awesome job. The problem with a night like that is that it goes by way too fast.

What the H-E- Double-toothpicks are you two talking about????

Check out the photos down at the bandstand on the team's web site, there's a link to the Leader Herald...some great ones! :)

That's funny..I went back through that post and that can be confusing to the casual observer.

1. The first thing was a parade in our village today for our High School baseball team. The won the NYS Baseball Championship.

2. Hickory Hill Hoff was the DJ for my 20 year class reunion.

Hope that clears things up.:D
