I was 13, cleaning my room while listening to the radio on my brand new ghetto blaster that I got for my birthday a few days before.0

I worked in a computer lab on a college campus--we had the radio on and were standing around listening to the verdict too.0

I can't believe it's been 20 years already. For the 'chase', I was living in Ohio at the time, sitting on my ottoman in front of the tv with my daughter thinking I should be packing for our drive up to Minnesota. We even listened to it in the car until it ended. I wanted a nap then. LOL
For the verdict, I was still in Ohio and as soon as it was announced a verdict was coming I left work, drove like a mad woman home, hubby had take-out lunch(dinner) all ready, and we sat and watched.
Needless to say I was absolutely stunned. Then pissed.
I'm so glad he's (now) where he should have been all those years ago.
My childhood home is not too far from Nicole's condo. Yikes!0 -
I was in 5th grade, we had multiple class discussions on the trail, but I don't remember what I was doing when they announced the verdict.0

I remember my parents talking about it, but I really don't remember where I was during the verdict. I was 5, so maybe in kindergarten or playing with my toys.0

Sitting in hs math class. My teacher turned on the TV, telling us that we would be talking about this moment for the rest of our lives.0

Like many in this thread I will be honest and say I don't know, i remember the chase but the trial had no impact on my life at that time, Princess Di dying, the Omagh, Shankill bombs and 9/11 affected me more0

At home, taking care of my newborn son - I did watch quite a bit of the trial since I wasn't working.0

High school... Was about 30 minutes after lunch period ended. We had an open campus... A few friends stayed out at a convenience store to watch the verdict.0

Not sure. I was in third grade. Obviously, it wasn't important to me then0

LOL, I was in middle school. We were outside on the track in Phys Ed ... probably attempting to run the mile (I never ran that thing). I remember our teacher called us over to the concession stand and said ... "The verdict is in for OJ! Guilty or not guilty?" Almost everyone was like ... "Guilty!!" Ha. Surprise!! He told us and we were all just kind of like ... "Whaaaat?!"0
-
At work. Only most of us weren't working, we were standing around watching the damned thing on TV.
I had just started a new job and just come out of training so I was the least busy.0 -
I was having myself some Ritz crackers snacks in Kindergarten. HOLLA0

Working as an electrician's assistant during summer break at Baldwin-Wallace College. We were in the college union, watching on a (then) big screen tv.0
