1982 - 19 years old working for Spider Willis and Jerry Graham "learning the business"  No regrets but they were not the easiest of men

And im sure you guys remember the announcer then..I remember hearing late night's harness results wrapup on Chicago radio from the talented Tony Solvaro. (got Chi radio crystal clear most nights up her in Ontario)

Most of you chicago horse fans knew he passed in '17 at young age of 70.  Such a terrific racecall
