THE PRICE IS WRONG EPISODE EP#28 FIRST TAKE AT THE TRACK Vic Stauffer vs Shoe Go to WAR Over Paco

The stewards gave Paco Lopez 30 days. Then it got LOUD. Four horses went down in the Wild Applause Stakes on Saratoga's opening day — all four walked away — and the New York State Gaming Commission hit Paco Lopez with a 30-day suspension for "gross careless riding." Lopez appealed, got a stay, and rides Preakness winner Napoleon Solo in TODAY'S Haskell at Monmouth Park. Former race caller and steward Vic Stauffer says the stewards got it right that this is about protecting riders. Shoe Eats Turf says the replay is inconclusive and there's one set of rules for Paco and another for everybody else. What follows is the most heated debate in Price Is Wrong history — full Stephen A. vs. Skip — with Christian Hellmers holding the whistle. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 — Intro, overview, and old BCBC betting stories [4:27] — Shoe's case: "railroad job" [7:17] — Vice fires back: the steward's view and the debate begins [39:26] — Two types of rules.
