For everyone that enjoys the sport of horse racing, there is an announcer or a call that you just cannot forget. For one reason or another they stick with all of us. I can respect the magnitude of any race and its place in historical context but what really sticks with me is when the announcer makes me laugh. It could be Tom Durkin, Larry Collmus or even a guest announcer like Conan O’Brien. It might be a horses name or the weather that creates the moment but regardless it will stick.Exceptional preformance is one this but hysterical or improvisational calls can really sink in. Below is a list of the funniest calls in horse racing history, in my opinion. Sit back and remember history one smile and chuckle at a time. Then vote at the end for your favorite.
