Hmmm... I've never heard that usage of "toll", nor seen that definition. Is that line correct? Are they using slang?

Are you sure it wasn't ' to haul me out of the booth'. 'To haul' and 'toll' might sound quite similar to a non-native speaker.

I've never heard toll used in that way either.

I'm sure I heart "They're gonna have to toll me out of the booth".

Can you give a little more of the context?

When you have a funeral, the church bells "toll." I wonder if it's somehow related? Like, they'll have to take me out feet first - a euphamism for "I'll do this till I die."

In a cars race, the reviewer said:

If this gets any more exciting, they're
gonna have to toll me out of the booth!

"they" refer to drivers.

How about "tow." When a car breaks down, you "tow" it because it can't move under its own power. They'll put ropes on him and haul him out. The booth, I guess, is the announcers' booth.

I'm sure it's "toll" becasue there is an English Subtitle in the movie and I've read "toll out of the booth".

Onh1986Please someone tell me what it means.
I've told you: lure out of the booth.
Does it correspond to what you remember from the movie?
