OJ Simpson- 20th anniversary of the chase!
Today is the 20th anniversary of OJ and Al Cowlings fleeing the police in the white Bronco. Do you remember what you were doing 20 years ago?

Whatever happened to O.J. Simpson's white Ford Bronco?

I went to UCLA grad school. Our graduation ceremony was held on that very day on Sunset in LA, and OJ in his Bronco and the chase passed right behind us during the graduation, while we were on the podium. I'll never forget that.

Unfortunately, I was driving around an identical white Ford Bronco at the time. You have no idea how many times I was asked if OJ was riding along with me!!! Scott

Glued to the TV, and for the next 15 or so months. Might catch heat, but it was a joke with how they railroaded him in Vegas. Judge has come out and said she didn't like OJ or his lawyer.
First trial had too much Police corruption, NO ONE ever brings a sample of blood to the scene,,,,,, period, it's taken and refrigerated right away, and secured.
Socks with identical blood stains in both sides, blood trail from Bronco to front door, yet a bloody glove found behind Kato's room, on and on.

Best thing that could have happened to him earlier was to trip while running through the Airport in the Hertz ad.
I'm with you Bob....who cares!!!!

About 30 some years ago, O.J. was my neighbor...used to leave the Ford dealership after 9 PM and stop at "Tops" to shop and there would be O.J. pushing his cart.
Never talked to him (although we had some mutual friends like Joe D.) but I did see him always smile and talk to people who approached him.
Too bad he has slight personality trait that involves a knife..........
Of course I have a friend who was an officer at Attica prison who had David Berkowitz ("Son of Sam') as one of "his boys" who told me David was a nice guy, he just had and issue with people parked in cars and a a .44 pistol!

Psychopaths cannot be healed. They learn to disguise their disease so the next "kill" is bigger than the last. Death is the only solution to eliminate psychopaths their minds are not curable.

NYG you are a funny guy posting this. You need some ideas? I have a few I didn't include in a post. I'm like History Buff start a thread and never come back.
However not much annoys me let alone piss me off like that lost thread of mine. But this sort of annoys me.
Peter Brant And Nate Lowman Throw A Party With OJ Simpson's Ford Bronco - Forbes
First off they use the Bronco as a joke for this art thingy. Second of all the town should treat Brant as a leper but instead kiss his ass. Back in the early 80's 2000 acres of the original 2500 estate of my g. grandfather was coming back on the market. I asked my grandfather if money could be borrowed from trust funds and well to much going on at the time and I was racing and not 20 yet. Many reasons why not but at that time there were bigger fish to fry. Brant with a relative partner bought the 2000 acres 18 million I believe. Properties subdivided, polo field constructedand all that. Funny thing when money got tight for him his world class horse barn burned down to the ground. Not only that but a lot was covered up but satellite pictures obtained by me could not be explained why minutes before his estate managers car was by the barn. Someone lied big time. But living in the area I here all the sketchy things he has done. Now that sort of annoys me. lol Sorry he still is a fake ass MF!
Edit. By the way in that flickr account ..Orange Superbird was a high school car. Automatic never liked it. My brother ha that Jamaican blue Daytona hemi...that was a sweet one. Sapphire blue GT 350 H was a high s cool car too. Still have it. As stated black Porsche crushed. Not sure I I deleted the Ferrari pics, I think did. Just send me a PM because you know I'm long winded. always a story behind a story behind that story. That's a quote from Beamon who flew through the air in Mexico one day and won the US a gold medal.
Two summers ago I was at my local museum looking at the new exhibit. There was a video of Bob's jump. My daughters watched it and saw how excited I was in seeing it again. Sort of cool having my daughters see me get that excited. What I didn't know was Bob was around the corner and heard me. Well one thing led to another and Bob is a friend now along with Herbert Douglas. Wish my wife could have met him. She would not have known who he was though. Great man faced great adversity. When he was a little boy he had to live with another relative because he father literally wanted to kill him. Truly a great man.
I won't get into how the US boycotted the '80 Russian games and I missed my chance.
