Bronco Chase -- not sure, but I think I was watching the Knicks and they were showing the people in luxury boxes watching the chase instead of the game
OJ Verdict -- in the chambers of a federal judge for whom a friend was clerking
Diana Crash -- at a bar in Chicago for a friend's bachelor party
9/11 -- heard the first news on the radio as I was waking up, and then headed to turn on the TV
In general, when I've heard news on the radio, I'm much more likely to remember where I was. E.g., I remember hearing about the coup in the former Soviet Union in 1991 (?).

I remember things when I'm abroad. I was living in Spain during Tiennaman Square and I was living in England when the Oklahoma City bombing took place.
