The Juice Was Loose
It was 20 years ago today that the most famous car chase in American history captivated our attention.
On June 17, 1994, the nation watched as the L.A.P.D. chased a white Ford Bronco along the Los Angeles freeways at a show-stopping 35 miles per hour. Of course, the driver of that Bronco was one Orenthal James "O.J." Simpson, a Hall of Fame football player suspected in the grisly murder of his ex-wife and her friend.
"The Chase" was a ratings bonanza, with an estimated 95 millions Americans glued to their televisions that Friday evening. How could another former football player with his own checkered history not want to get in on that kind of free publicity?
