Dating myself a bit here, but I remember when Sundays were dark days (thanks to New York's blue laws). What sticks in my mind is a television commercial featuring a guy who had come to the track on a Sunday and discovered it was dark, "so I ripped up a hundred dollar bill and went home."
If memory serves, the Spa was the "Graveyard of Favorites", not the current "Graveyard of Champions," in those days. I still think the former sounds more appealing.
