15 Years Ago Today: OJ Chase

“Juice, don’t give up now!”

I remember where I was when this went down. I was working at a local restaurant and was stealing glimpses of the Rockets/Knicks game. I came back at one point and there was a mass huddling around a big screen TV. Then I saw the OJ chase.

Here is some video with audio of the phone call from Det. Tom Lange while OJ was in the Bronco.

As Bob Costas said at the time, The whole situation was “not just tragic but now surreal.”

    Man, that was a long time ago. Geez. I still remember I was at the Sox game in a suite…Sports Channel Chicago took all the interns to that night’s game. Yep, that was our “pay” for a summer of slavery, and they didn’t even pop for the beer, LOL! I remember the NBA Finals and the “breaking news” of the OJ story. I don’t remember a damn thing from that baseball game though!
