Wait for it....Back in the late 1960's, Sweden decided to change from driving of the left-hand side of the road, to the right...to align with the rest of Europe.
A Saturday night was selected, so that all of the road signs & markings could be changed.
So ALL residents were encouraged to stay at home, and stay off the roads.
So virtually ALL of Sweden sat at home, and of course, watched TV, where a little known band called ABBA was on a talent show, watched by the entire population of Sweden, or thereabouts!!
And the rest, as they say, is history !!
