    Before I visited the website, all I knew was that Danica Patrick's birthday is the same as mine as well as Elton John (so is Sarah Jessica Parker...)

    Also, March 25th is like 1/4 of the year away from Christmas.

    March 25th used to be around the date of Bristol's spring race, Elliott Sadler won his first career victory at Bristol in 2001.
