    Q: What's the difference between O.J. Simpson and John Elway? A: One drove a slow, Bronco. The other "is" a slow, Bronco.

    Q: Does this thread not violate the Community Guidelines considering that it was an incredibly controversial and divisive topic in the late 90s?


    Also, I was in 7th grade reading class.

    Nah, just asking where people were back in the time the verdict was announced. Let's not let it get into a debate about the trial. I thought it would be an interesting topic based on how televised it was during the verdict. Very few events held people's attention like the actual announcement did at this or any other time. Reflecting on where one might have been when they heard it, is the curiosity here.

    Fair enough. Because I actually do remember it happening and the teacher turning on the classroom television for us to watch it.

    I was 8.
    I was in Bucharest.
    I had no idea who any of these people are, nor did anyone else.
    I still pretty much have no idea who they are.
