No.

The fine is from a "failure to honor his call".

I think it stems from abandoning his race calling duties at the recent Hollywood meet. The day Joel Rosario won 6 races, I believe he left his post and failed to call the 10th and final race on the card.

I personally think this was a brilliant play on the word and not a misspelling on Cardus' part. It went over the heads of most.

One certainty from this thread is that Vic will never be asked to call at Longchamps.

Beat me to it. By a day, granted, but this post was like taking 3 tylenol PMs after reading that first post. Sweet, sweet relief.

Vic, is it true in 1989 you were fined for throwing a gum wrapper on the floor at Hialeah Park?

1989 was my first year at Hialeah. I'd have waxed the floors I was so happy to be there. Great memories!
