Schooner Tuna Commerical--GOOF! Did anyone else notice?

Near the end of the movie when Teri Garr's character flies to Los Angeles, she oversees the filming of the Schooner Tuna commercial. The crew guy with the slate says something like "Schooner Tuna commercial, Take 24" and the president of the tuna company starts filming but messes up, so they cut. After a pep talk with Teri Garr's character, he's ready to film again. The crew guy again stands in front of the camera with the slate and accidentally calls it "Schooner Tuner" instead of "Schooner Tuna." Ha ha ha

Did anyone else see this?!

It really doesn't appear that he did it on purpose, in character. I think the actor got it mixed up and accidentally said it, but they kept rolling and no one really noticed. It's funny...."Schooner Tooner"

But the first time the crew member said it and opened and closed the slate, he said "Schooner Tuna, take 1." then the second time, he said "Schooner Tooner, take 2" so I think he just messed up accidentally.

I've never heard anyone from NY say "tooner"...if anything they drop their "Rs" as in "matta" for "matter" or "caa" for "car."

Would Northeasterners really say "Arizoner" or "bandaner"?!
