27 Feb, 2016: Day 75

Question 1:
One of the most important race tracks in North America, originally built in 1894, goes by what nickname in the horse racing industry? Answer: The Big A.


Several race tracks to chose from, historical to the present. Look for them by typing horse racing track 1894 nickname into the search field..

Question 2:
The main character in the Broadway production of "Jersey Boys" was the lead singer for a band that celebrated their first commercial release in what year? Answer: 1953.


Please see Day 6 for the explanation..

Question 3:
What was the name of the first literary character that Truman Capote modeled after his friend, Harper Lee? Answer: Idabel Thompkins.


This question is in relation to the one posted on Day 5. I think it's nice they immortalised each other in their work. Look up the answer by typing in the search field "Harper Lee" character "Truman Capote". You might have to do some digging beyond the page results.
