Dave Johnson Calls a Race at Tioga Downs [02:16]
Legendary track announcer Dave Johnson was a special guest at Tioga Downs on August 29, 2010. Dave did a live broadcast of his SiriusXM radio show, "Down the Stretch" and then visited the announcer's booth to call the 12th race of the day. Technical difficulties prevented the crowd from hearing his race call. Luckily, our own camera was right next to him and recorded the whole thing!
