The common saying, or slogan for the Melbourne Cup, is "The Race that stops a nation". This is because it is believed everyone stops what he/she is doing and watches or listens to the Melbourne Cup, whether live, on television, or listening to the radio. This is, of course, not the case: despite the iconic status of the Melbourne Cup, not everyone has an interest.
