Almost the 30 year anniversary of the chase in his Ford Bronco. I also remember him as Nordberg in the Naked Gun trilogy.

That’s right, in a couple months it’ll be the anniversary. I remember it very well; it happened in the L.A. area, which is local to me.

You’re right.

All I remember was when he was in The Naked Gun.

I remember when the jury determined that Juice was innocent in the murder case about a year later. Everybody in my office was tuned in to the broadcast, not very surprised. Juice and CourtTV host Kristin Jeannette-Myers are now probably on that great newscast in the sky, discussing highlights of the case coverage along with Johnny Cochran, “F.” Lee Bailey, and Robert Kardashian.

I could care less about the trial. I was upset that they preempted my soaps.

Stil, I'm sure that OJ and Ben Johnson from the Seoul Olympics can do an interesting sports talk show for Pip from the Twilight Zone.

I was in high school at the time, and they interrupted classes to announce the verdict over the P.A. system. It was one of the biggest court cases in history

I was in year nine -- former Footscray Bulldogs player Ted Whitten's death that year was a bigger shock for us given were so into AFL footy in outer suburban Melbourne. This was the era of Netscape Navigator and WBS Chat not Yew Choob and also we faced dial-up and the family telly's were controlled by Mum and Dad so... very different world.

Juice’s family has ruled out testing his cranial remains for CTE. He’ll be creamated, probably this coming Tuesday.

A Celebration of Life event will be set for some date in the future.

Most of the dignitaries who will show up to his COL event are only going to show up to make sure he's dead...

I don’t imagine that The Goldmans or Denise Brown Simpson will show up there.

Indeed, a "celebration of life" event for OJ Simpson would b the height of poor taste.

I think that was a good idea cause who knows what would've happened if he was buried, they might have wanted to exhume his body.

Given it was Juice i wouldn't have arrested Ron and Nicole's friends if they had a Dahmer-type dig him up just after the funeral and "do with him as you will".
Sorry for the flash of vengeance but a person i cared about a lot at Mullauna Secondary College (1993-98) had to come home from school to find her Mum's body -- murdered by her defacto partner. That man and his sleazy lawyer effectively put her Mum on trial in the courtroom.

30 years ago today, Juice was involved in the infamous “slow speed chase” in a white Ford Bronco, with his buddy Al Cowlings at the wheel. More than a year later, a California jury found OJ innocent of murder charges.

Many black Africans still admire Mugabe and Mengistu for overthrowing Smith and Selassie. Not just powerful ones, either.
