OJ trial verdict - university, I think, but I can't remember the exact day and where I was.

- Princess Diana death - had moved into my new apartment that day and was watching TV - my roommate was over at her boyfriend's place so I just sat there, stunned completely. I got up to watch her funeral before I headed to work for the day.

- 9/11 - was watching Canada AM while getting ready for work and they switched to the NBC (I think) feed - saw the second plane hit the second tower.

- Canada hockey gold in Vancouver - watching the game at home

- Gretzky trade - at home, don't recall what I was doing.

- Flames eliminating the Canucks in OT, game 7, 2004 - no clue, I'll be honest, I wasn't much of a Flames fan then.

- Challenger explosion - I was in school and our school secretary told us

- 1st Iraq Gulf war - I was in junior high at the time, all I remember was having some terrible nightmares about the war in the first few weeks.
