Default You know its Holiday Time in Albany when...

You know the holidays are upon you in the Albany, NY area when the OTB tv station starts playing some of the most depressing Christmas music you ever heard.
We don't have commentators on voicing over the gaps in races for the most parts, and at night and morning they just show a loop that cycles constantly with the entries at all the tracks they are taking that day. They play music all day long until the races go off and you get the call and picture.
Every year about this time, the music is switched to Christmas music in a minor key. They find a way to make even the cheeriest song morbid.
Its like you are sitting there, just blew a photo or a pik-3, and the saddest rendition of "WHite Christmas" you ever heard comes on, and you wanna step into the bathtub and drop in the toaster.
