Seventeen years ago to the day O.J. Simpson was a passenger in a white Bronco driving down the highway as dozens of police cars chased from behind. Many of you, like me, remember where you were on that day.
Memories Of O.J. Simpson’s Car Chase 17 Years Ago Today
I was actually playing a little league baseball game and my dad had a portable TV in his car. (Yeah, a portable TV in 1994. You can imagine the quality.) With O.J. Simpson driving the white Bronco, and no one realizing the extent of what would unfold over the following years, my dad went out and got this portable TV and I vividly remember looking through the chain-link fence at our little league baseball stadium of this blurry image of a white car driving down the street with loads of police officers following him.
The years that followed were some of the most bizarre we’ve even seen connected to a professional athlete. Court TV was born as a result. As a kid, I started to realize that not all athletes were, um, good guys (even if the jury suggested otherwise). I’m not sure that we’ll ever see anything like the O.J. Simpson car chase ever again.
Where were you when the O.J. Simpson car chase went down?
