  • How many “R’s” in Auburndale?

    Have you noticed that almost everyone mis-pronounces Auburndale? They add an extra “R” and say ARBurndale. Now my wife, a former yankee who naturally mid-pronounces things, is saying it that way too!

    No worries! My son and I are on the way to ARBurndale tonight for the twin sportsman features, Legends and other classes. We can’t wait to be back at a track!

      Bones, I think you got the extra "r" right but are putting it in the wrong place.

      I believe it is "Auburndale-r".

      Like the Kennedys and "Cuber". For that matter, 04, ain't it Florid-r?

      Used to put up with a Staten Islander. "Law and Order" became "Lawr and Ordah".

      At any rate, enjoy a "be-ah" whilst you are there.

        It’s not just Yankees, most of the FL people saw it wrong too.

        Don’t even get me started on “De Sota”.

          A quick way to remember --Just sigh and say "Awwwwwwburndale".

          Actually, I love the joint and wish I were going.
