I have some really good stories about Donnie Meche. One meet at CD he was riding 3 or 4 for me pretty regularly and I got so pissed at him one time I told him he wasnt allowed to speak after the race until after we watched the replay and even then I had my assistant standing between us relaying messages so that I would not strangle him if he said something stupid.

It was pretty funny looking back. We used to joke he and his twin Lonnie shared a brain and werent ever sure who had use of it from day to day.

There is a great story about an intentional vet scratch but it would take too long and I dont want to get anyone in trouble...ask me in person if you see me.
