Our track seemed to have problems finding the ENGLISH feed for Hong Kong back in the day, and across the 2nd level it would be blaring in CANTONESE!!

And in between races, still early enough that Fraser Downs was going on, and Rick Uppal was calling back then. Now the caller at Ocean Downs, he has toned it down a bit from his Fraser Downs days. (Search Fraser Downs/Duca for a blast from the past)

Can we keep this thread about Larry. IF anybody can contact him, let him know his fans would love to know how he is doing in this long term battle. I started this thread because it had been a while since I heard him call a race and WAS THRILLED to know he is still among the living and hoping he stays that way as long as I am still among the living. Even if I didn't bet the race, I would watch it to listen to Larry waiting for that clever comment during his race calls.

I used to look forward to the Garden State harness meet just to hear his calls and what he would come up with next. Miss the days when between him and Robin Burns at Scioto betting those place via simulcast.

I know that track announcers shouldn't influence where you bet, but those two were something else. And the racing wasn't bad at GSP.

Frank Mirahmadi has been posting on Facebook about his "pizza tour," and apparently Larry accompanied him to some pizza restaurant in Jersey either today or yesterday, so he's well enough for that.

If I knew Larry was at Conte's today I would have stopped in to buy him a slice.

It was nice hearing Larry at Parx a few days ago too.

as long as he feels strong enough he will call races on a temporary basis. he happens to be very good friends with the guy that owns the Meadowlands and will call races there one of these days.

for Larry it must feel real good to get positive vibes from people like yourself. for me i am just glad that you are one of his fans along with others here. like i said before he spent a lot of time speaking with my friends kid and dealing with the rest of his family. the kid passed on about a year ago and his family is still very thankful for all of Larry's efforts. no doubt about it, Larry is top notch in my book and there isn't anything i won't do to help him as best i can. you influenced me enough with his actions that i will continue to donate a portion of my purse winnings this year to help out cancer support groups in Boston. last year i only had 1 win from 1 horse. this year i have 2 pretty decent New York Breds that look good so far, so i am hoping i can do my part to help out.

Larry will be calling Monmouth every day this weekend. Frank is in the hospital. Tom Cassidy read a letter on TVG about it. It didn't go into details but Tom did say that he saw Frank and Frank was in good spirits. Get well soon, Frank, best wishes.

Didn't know that, thanks for the info. Glad to hear Larry but certainly hope Frank will be okay.

Seriously, what could be better than a pizza tour with Frank?
