Day 6 Volleyball

Watching NBC’s late night coverage of the Olympics on my TiVo right now. It’s Men’s Team Volleyball with Russia facing off against the U.S.A. … some good volleyball, but mostly by the Russians so far.
When there’s a substitute or time-out or end of a match, they punch the horn noise over the PA as is the case for most sporting events. What’s cracking me up, though, is that it sounds like an old American Chevy car horn. I just imagine there’s this guy sitting behind the wheel of a 69 Camaro situated at one end of the Volleyball venue, one hand holding a bottle of Jack and the other hand squarely on the horn, ready and waiting to be of service. On, and he’s wearing a wife beater.
There’s that horn again!
