Like when people heard about the assasination of JFK, or the attacks of 9/11 - do you remember the first time you heard the OJ Simpson Not Guilty virdict.

I was in my 6th grade Social Studies Class @ Curundu Middle School, Panama :p The teacher, Mr. Bates, was talking about Mayan Piramids, when my math teacher, Mrs. Wetzenstein, barged into the room. She was wearing a walkman, listening to the news I assume, screaming "NOT GUILTING!! THEY FOUND OJ NOT GUILTY!!!!!!!!". :laugh: Pathetic, eh?

I was in school. My teacher bet us lunch he would be guilty. It was a good lunch.

If it was in 1994, I would have been 10 years old at the time...I dunno, I don't really consider it a "history-changing moment" like 9/11 was....

8th grade homeroom. We had a ghetto TV on to hear it. Half the class (and other classrooms) cheered and the other half was like WTF?!?!?!

I was in my 10th grade (or was it 11th grade?) US History class...they brought in a TV so we could watch the verdict live. After that the faculty (all white) were all acting stunned while the students were all happy.
