One of my earliest memories is seeing a man on TV in a windbreaker hitting concrete with a sledgehammer and thinking "why does that man hate those rocks". About 15 years later I realized I was watching the fall of the Berlin Wall.
Remember how the wall coming down was treated like the second coming of christ for years? Kinda funny when you find out that the fourth reich overran the drg, stole everything, destroyed everything they couldn't steal, and left east germany desisture and miserable, while being forced to adopt some of east germanys laws because it would be too embarassing to take away rights from women.
In my kindergarten class the teacher had some freak come in and they wheeled in a TV and we watched the OJ trial verdict live. She said we were watching history happen or some shit. That's all I remember, but I do remember telling my parents and getting switched to a different school pretty quick after.
Holy shit that's crazy to expose a kindergartner to a murder trial. I think Princess Diana's death was the first big adult topic my parents talked to me about and that didn't make any sense to my undeveloped brain.
I'm one of the good millennials, ya know the ones old enough to know what 9/11 was but too young to experience the OJ Trial.
Lol I remember my gym teacher yelling, "Guess what? OJ Simpson was innocent!" after the verdict. We were in like 3rd grade.

Your refrigerator needs to run a lot or else the juice will get loose. It's what the kids on the bus told me.
The only bit of it I remember is my school announcing the verdict over the intercom, I think I was coming back from the bathroom
