Friday Flashbacks: O.J.’s White Bronco, Len Bias, and Bowie over Jordan
This week in 1994 was one of the most memorable sports weeks in my lifetime. It started with the New York Rangers, Captain Mark Messier and Conn Smythe winner Brian Leetch winning the Stanley Cup to chants of “1940″, followed by the riots in Vancouver after game 7. Friday, June 17th was also the opening day of the World Cup, with defending champion Germany defeating Bolivia 1-0, followed by a wild Spain-South Korea 3-3 draw. That evening, I settled in to watch Game 5 of the NBA Finals between the New York Knicks and Houston Rockets, when a white Bronco took over the television, appearing in a split screen on the television. If you were old enough then, it is one of those moments you remember exactly where you were, watching O.J. Simpson and Al Cowlings travel down the highway, followed by a host of LAPD.

Mark Messier.. one of my first sports crushes. I was one weird kid.
June 17th, 2011 at 2:09 PM
I remember my dad laughing hysterically, both because of that moment when they went split-screen (which was truly absurd/surreal) and that seemingly every cop in LA was following him.
June 17th, 2011 at 2:09 PM
It’s a good think jpq doesn’t comment here anymore. Such a bullshit goal.

that evening, I settled in to watch Game 5 of the NBA Finals between the New York Knicks and Houston Rockets, when a white Bronco took over the television, appearing in a split screen on the television.
This was enormous bullshit to Rockets fans (myself included). We weren’t even getting audio of the game. That was the dawn of entertainment news taking a strange precedence over the lives of all Americans, even those that profess to hate it.
June 17th, 2011 at 2:10 PM
I do, I was working as a busboy at a shitty restaurant in the town I grew up in. pretty sure my mode of transport at the time was a moped as well. big pimping as a 16 y.o.

I was 9. Was playing pick-up football game in the backyard with some neighbors while my dad was putting together some patio furniture on the deck. My mom poked her head out the door and yelled “the juice is loose!” Half the neighborhood kids/adults came over to watch the chase in our living room.

1994, working as a bouncer at Doc Donahues in Manasquan, New Jersey. Band playing was Bums in the Park, did an excellent cover of Rage’s Killing in the Name, usually the whole bar would be moshing to the end of the set instead, all eyes on the 19 inch color tv’s and the bronco chase. Band broke into Surrender by Cheap Trick, can still hear it.

I was seven and my parents weren’t into sports so I have no recollection of watching Simpson on the freeway. However, I remember that in third grade we watched his verdict on TV in class.

Heat defeat Mavericks in 6 games, as Wade dominates and Dirk struggles (2006)
Dwyane Wade ran headlong into mavericks on purpose in game 6, and the refs blew the whistle. That series was devastating. Don’t even get me started about the end of game 5.
It doesn’t matter as much anymore though, because Dirk is a champion now. I am just so happy for the guy.
June 17th, 2011 at 2:17 PM
My friend’s parents were away and had an awesome party. Remember it vividly. Summers of doing nothing are sorely missed.
June 17th, 2011 at 2:17 PM
We watched in class too and I remember high fiving someone
June 17th, 2011 at 2:18 PM
Absolutely. I was 13. I think we were playing baseball or street hockey outside and came in right before this all went down. Just surreal. At 13, athletes are still larger than life. I think this was the first time I remember seeing one of them like this.

I was a freshman in high school. I wasn’t shocked or anything, just remembered thinking that I’ll always remember where I was when this moment happend. Then I remember hearing some of the, um, kids yelling in excitment and then racing home to see if they got their “O.J. prize”

Just gotten back from swimming at Water World and was watching it at a friend’s house. Action packed day.
June 17th, 2011 at 2:21 PM
Still hurts 25 years later. First and only athlete I ever idolized.
Funny enough I was in Ocean City MD for both the OJ chase and Len Bias death. I remember the OJ chase vividly. Still laugh when I think of the Howard Stern crank caller who fooled everyone on ABC but Al Michaels.

This. I just remember being up watching the game till 1 am with no real rooting interest except for hating Brett Hull, only to have that goal happen. Fuck Brett Hull
June 17th, 2011 at 2:23 PM
So had Portland taken Perkins or Barkley at #2, the Bulls would have taken Bowie and Jordan would have ended up in Dallas or Philly? Crazy to think about all of the implications here.

Same here.
June 17th, 2011 at 2:25 PM

that was really hilarious. Al Michaels just cut in from nowhere to about the caller saying something “in code,” and the “code” was the guy saying Babba-Booey, babba-booey.
He had been saying he was laying in a van or something.
June 17th, 2011 at 2:25 PM
This. And please Andrew Miller don’t give up 7 walks in the first 4 innings on Monday.

I was a youngin’. Still not sure why we watched that in class in the early afternoon but I remember it. I don’t recall any of the kids really having a reaction. After all, we were seven or eight years old.
June 17th, 2011 at 2:25 PM
This was enormous bullshit to Rockets fans (myself included). We weren’t even getting audio of the game.
we had it on gene peterson during most of the finals anyways. never forget that cutaway to the chase. fun stuff, b/c the rockets ended up winning.
June 17th, 2011 at 2:26 PM
The fact that there were literally like 15 cop cars chasing him was absurd. That would have been a great night to knock over a bank in LA.

how about that one from the Book of Basketball where Portland nearly traded the #2 pick and Drexler to Houston for Ralph Sampson, giving Houston #1 and #2?
June 17th, 2011 at 2:27 PM
still remember where i was in 1994: double-date (more of a hangout than a date) with 2 chicks from a nearby high school. we saw the OJ thing at McDonalds while getting milkshakes. ended up learning something cool that night – the chick i was trying to make happen actually had a pet alligator. don’t remember her name, but her crew was STACKED.
still seems like yesterday i can remember the awesomeness of 17 years ago. you guys reading this who are 20ish … enjoy it. it’s fun when you’re older, but a different kind of fun.

The summer of 1994 was one of the best summers of my youth, mostly because Speed came out that summer.
June 17th, 2011 at 2:32 PM
I still enjoy that movie. Then I travelled to California for the first time and remember thinking that the bus would have blown up before it got off the on ramp to the 405.

The summer of 1994 was one of the best summers of my youth, mostly because Speed came out that summer.
That movie was on cable a few weeks ago late at night when I couldn’t sleep. One of the most unintentionally funny movies I’ve ever seen when you watch it after you haven’t seen it in about 10 years.
“Pop quiz, HOT SHOT!”
“There’s enough C4 on this bus to put a hole in the world.”
“Shoot the hostage.”

June 17th, 2011 at 2:37 PM

he’s always trying to be “street.” Don’t you remember when he was looking for Bsanders before the Jets/Colts playoff game, so he could “rap” about it with him?

June 17th, 2011 at 2:37 PM
I was a sophomore in high school. The OJ verdict was about to be read and we had to go outside to work on special teams during football class (yes, we have football class in Texas).
I begged my coach to let me stay in the locker room and watch the verdict. When he said no, I said “but this is history in the making!” He responded with, “History is going to be made when you get your ass kicked this Friday night!” By the way we won that Friday 55-0 or something absurd like that.

Other than the goal, why do people hate Brett Hull?
Being a CO fan I hated the entire stars team (soft place in the heart for mike modano though) after that 7 game WCF series. I always thought he was an entitled little prick who didn’t live up to the class his dad had. The “charlie sheen” of Hockey sorts I guess.
