Why is th eMelbourne Cup the 'race that stops a nation'?
 
I don't know why . . . but I'll have a guess.

Is it because there's f**k all else to do?

Because it's tradition - we're always getting bagged for having little history and culture. Getting blind every year on cup day is a very historic and cultural experience!!!

It's an Aussie thing isn't it, get invited to a party and bring all your own food and drink. Not at my parties. I supply it all. I find it rude to say bring your own stuff:ohmy: Tight arses.
