Norberto Arroyo Jr. at Turfway
 

Is this the same Norberto Arroyo from New York that got in to a lot of fights and jail time?

Yes

He got caught on the Mass Turnpike speeding with a ton of coke in his car - like enough for them to consider him a dealer - got 2 and a half years in prison for that.

TP gave him a conditional license in Dec. Hopefully he's cleaned his sh1t up and is ready to take riding seriously.

Really? Where did you read that?

I was under the impression that Arroyo was arrested in SARATOGA driving down the street w/o a seatbelt on. He was pulled over by a cop and was arrested when cop found coke in view on console.

He also had a domestic assault charge in FL

Making stories up re Arroyo now?

It was not " a ton of coke " and from what I remember, not even close. It was 12 grams.

In 12 ounces of Coke, you have like 40 grams of Sugar.

I think rude was speaking in relative terms. If you showed up at a party with 12 grams of coke, people would say "that dude brought a ton of coke"

not at dutrows house..

:tro:

No, I just think he was wrong. It's OK. I'm wrong all the time ( a lot lately in fact ).

My hope is that there isn't someone who literally interpreted my post to say he was trafficking 900 keys of blow in his trunk.

12 grams, from what I recall from the 80's, is a friggin' ton of coke.

I never saw a thing about it actually - I was at the Spa when it happened, and someone mentioned he got popped on the Mass Pike heading to Suffolk to ride. Obliviously now that was not accurate.

Honestly I've completely forgotten about the guy. Hope he's good now.

That is like 3 eight balls. Who hasnt been to a party where there was 3 eight balls there?

12 grams of coke is hardily a ton.. Honestly its less then 600 bucks worth..
