Default Tampa Bay..Grunder

Is there another racecaller out there who mangles the names of the horses during his race calls more than this guy?

I love betting the big fields there and waiting for another gem from him on a daily basis.

My favorite of all time was a few weeks/months ago when he called
Ballast

Ball assed

there was another beut over the weekend by I cant remember it right now

He does like to call the winners really early.

At least Grunder is entertaing, gets you a bit excited during the race (ok so sometimes he prematurely calls races), but he's 100x better than that mono-tone boring guy you are refering to that makes the same boring call of a race, every race, every day.
Instead of water boarding prisioners they should just but Battaglia on a loop.
