Strange sound coming over radio

Hey I was wondering if anybody else had run into this problem. While having my phone connected via bluetooth, I can be going down the road and then all of a sudden the "off to the horse races" sound plays. I have no clue what it means and it doesn't do it very often. It did again 2 or 3 weeks ago and then hasn't done it since. I hope someone has run into this as well and can shed some light. What I mean by off to the horse races is that short tune they play with the big trumpets at horse race tracks to introduce the start of a new race. I hope I described it good enough.

Anybody know??????

iphone?

cause there's a ringer sound like that that's used for text messages. and if you have your iphone on non vibrate, that sound would come in through the speakers.

can't say that i've ever had this happen to me though.

No I have a Droid X2 and was wondering about the text message thing as well but tried that and the sound didn't come on. I guess I am going to have to go to the dealer and see if they know because I am dumb founded. Maybe my car is possessed LOL

Ok well I guess I will try it again and see what happens but I could have swore I didn't get a text message when it went off. It is really weird. I haven't had time to go to the stealership to ask the question yet. LOL
