Sports on a Leap Day?! Youbetcha! – This DiSH for Feb. 29

In 1976, Richard Petty dominated the Carolina 500 in Rockingham, NC

In 1940, Jimmy Demeret won his third straight golf tournament within 11 days. 

And in 1964, the Big O and Jerry Lucas combined for a 40-40 performance. 

Also in 1964, the longest high school game in history. But there’s more to the story than just that.
