"AND AMERICAN PHARAOH, MAKES HIS RUN FOR GLORY". I get choked up almost every time I hear it.

[@karenhilker8074]

I gt chocked up when I hear/remember..."he's moving Luke a tremendous machine"..

[@bishlap]

and tests positive for BAFFERT JUICE...

[@emergencyexitonly5951]

The 37 year wait is over!

[@spenfor1598]

Even if not a horse racing fan how could you not get excited when he calls American Pharoah's run for glory and the Triple Crown!!! Well done!!!! I have since been in the presence of the magnificent American Pharoah!! Awesome horse!! So sweet!!! Thank you Pharoah!!!!

[@chaunceywhitiker1523]

DOPE HORSE

[@brianthomas7056]

Simply the best

[@johnmorales6281]

All it took was "American Pharoah makes his run for Glory" to make the goosebumps go

[@jazzjackson9875]

Larry Colmus is so great....not even the fog can stop him👌

[@meredithnichols3572]

The 2012 calls for I’ll Have Another and Bodemeister were epic

[@rendragmedia]

@Delroy Brower That must be Tom Durkin's Dutch cousin.

[@craigpope8580]

Best commentator by far because how passionate he is for the sport great calls keep it up

[@sinkingvalleyrabbitdogs218]

Justify in the Preakness was one of the best races I ever watched. Imagine trying to call that race. "NOT EVEN THE FOG COULD STOP HIM!"

[@HankTheTank23]

I wish you had made an exception and included American Pharaoh's Breeder's Cup Grandslam win. The call Larry gave as AP charged down the stretch was legendary and gives me chills every time.

[@Rick-rl1ss]

"And they're into the stretch in that slop at Pimlico and AMERICAN PHAROAH HAS PULLED AWAY!" It was at that very moment I had no doubts at all he was the next Triple Crown Winner

[@question_it_701]

You called it! Nice job!

[@BackinaFlash2010]

Great job by Larry Cullmus very passionate descriptions as it should be congratulations!!!!!!!👍🙂

[@BoT-mr8rw]

He is the best! I love his calls !

[@karenhilker8074]

I actually love "And Down The Strech They Come'

[@karenhilker8074]

Wish we could have heard Dave Johnson call AP season....

[@brianlane2834]

“HE’S JUST...IMMORTAL”

[@leeelisaia4892]

“but American Pharaoh is all by him self” oh the irony of that call! Just like his great great great Grandpa

The best announcer in American sports. No one else is close.

[@OfficialMuffiin]

How disrespectful to the legendary Tom Durkin. He was a 100x better caller than Larry.

[@aangstman]

@@OfficialMuffiin Durkin was fantastic. I was talking about announcers currently active.

[@OfficialMuffiin]

@@aangstman Oh my bad lol

[@beverleyhagaman7344]

I love his call on Rich Strike the best!

[@Rager_U]

Too bad you restricted it to "Triple Crown calls". One of Larry's most emotional calls was the 2015 Breeders' Cup Classic -- American Pharoah's final race.

[@russkline2357]

I agree 100%

[@HankTheTank23]

Yup, that call gives me chills every time.

[@Rick-rl1ss]

@@HankTheTank23 "As they come to the wire, a triple crown winner, a breeder's cup winner, a horse of a lifetime!!!" Tears in my eyes every time man

[@tylerprice9498]

This X 1000! Best call ever!

[@geoffreywallace9432]

Talk about goosebumps. Larry is a boss.

[@RLT1081]

Great stuff. A true professional.

[@bennybronx4990]

LARRY LEGEND 💪

[@lewdubspersonalbest9070]

Had never heard of him until last year's Filly & Mare Turf. "Here comes Loves Only You! Loves Only You's coming! To win! For Japan!" Great great caller.

[@dougdill2246]

Awesome Call by one of the best. Welcome to Southern California Larry

[@lisafrankel6101]

I remember Larry Collmus and his debut at Pimlico.

[@coffeeblack1057]

Larry has a way of making it exciting like tom durkin did

[@benjaaminrjs13]

I need to add the call of Breeder cup clasic Mucho macho man 💪🏼, larry is the best

[@Terminator36_10th_Mtn_Div]

Best announcer by far, and we will see if Tiz The Law will be a Triple Crown Winner with the different schedule this year over 15 weeks!!!!

[@Makado14]

What brilliant riding by Smith! The Preakness, especially, reminds me of when he rode Holy Bull in the Travers, The Bull was done at the 16th pole, but he was a Champion, and he gave Smith everything he had to hold off Concern...

[@markfinley7973]

Best Call Ever!

[@macdiddy1212]

[@Rick-rl1ss]

"Justify, he's unstoppable!"

[@frostedicepharoah7723]

He was the worst thing to ever happen to American horse racing.

[@question_it_701]

@@frostedicepharoah7723 Why?

[@frostedicepharoah7723]

@@question_it_701 He was retired while PERFECTLY HEALTHY only halfway through his 3 year old year after only 3 major wins, because his greedy owners didn’t want his stallion value to go down by risking a loss. Taking him out that early was the worst thing racing has ever seen and this trend is killing the sport.

[@peggypiper8850]

Love this guy!

[@frostedicepharoah7723]

I’ll Have Another vs Bodemeister in the Preakness is still the most exciting finish I’ve ever seen, except maybe Honor Code vs Liam’s Map in the Whitney.

[@roberthudson1959]

1978 Belmont Stakes. Affirmed won the Triple Crown by a nose over Alydar.

[@Treydawg5]

1989 Preakness stakes sunday silence vs easy goer

[@christopherwalters9150]

He's so good

[@russkline2357]

If his call of American Pharoah's TripleCrown win does not give you goosebumps, you are dead

[@luispinzon3495]

Simplemente es el mejor. Saludos desde colombia 👍

[@Ayden43v3r]

RICH STRIKE!!!!!

[@Makado14]

American Pharoah What a great horse to finally break the dry spell! Espinoza knew this horse well, a great Belmont. And Pharoah obviously loved the slop (Preakness) I wonder if he has a mud mark?

[@eggshi]

GOAT

[@paulvancyber1979]

Victor Espinosa and American Pharaoh makes me chill! Triple Crown Winners!

[@robertdileo3269]

Tom Durkin was the best race caller.

[@phillipwalker4747]

Larry calling Del Mar this meet looking forward to that

[@perrymitchell5502]

Good job good for you

[@tylerensminger]

Real shame I'll have another wasn't able to run in the Belmont as it will a case we'll never know

[@raygordonteacheschess5501]

Collmus looks like the guy who played the government spook on the series finale of Castle.

[@hannibal9852]

This needs an update with rich strike's Kentucky derby win

[@randolphedward8152]

Larry Colmus is legend

[@harunylmaz7283]

NYRA needs to bring Larry back as their main announcer for Belmont Park,Saratoga & Aqueduct ,Imbriale is 2nd string...If not there,than Oaklawn Park,where Vic Stauffer routinely blows the race calls and is just plain annoying

[@johnmartini2307]

Phil Georgeff was heads and heads above Larry. His calls were legendary

[@azeridave]

A big mistake that New York racing didn't pay Larry Colmus to be their permanent announcer. Now they are left with under achieving, boring, John imbreale

[@dave1283]

Is it Larry or Laura? What a shrieking squeak box.

[@question_it_701]

You're closer to a Darla than he is to a Laura. I guarantee it.

[@bishlap]

Larry's a good dude, but he's become a MAD SCREAMER in the tradition of the worst sports announcers. Larry, Calm it a bit - we know when it's exciting, no need to be so flamboyant about a race/race call.

[@question_it_701]

Everyone has been saying "Larry's too loud. We need a guy like TJ in there!"

[@michiganjack]

Collmus is a screeching harpie. His contrived/scripted, overwrought calls attempt to make it all about him. He is not especially accurate, and you can usually tell who he has bet on, because he mentions them randomly and often. He's a mediocrity, whose idea of drama is that it increases in concert with the volume of his idiotic shrieking. Please hire the more well modulated and infinitely more accurate Trevor Denman or Michael Wrona for future NBC national broadcasts.

[@mickster1780]

he yells too much in the big races

[@question_it_701]

Everyone has been saying "We need Mickster in there. That guy knows how to call horse races the right way".
