ChevyVanMiller Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 (edited) I may have shared this story before, but it seems appropriate to do here again now. I am the Director of Tourism for a major hotel in Niagara Falls, Ontario. In the early 2000s, OJ stayed with us for a couple of weeks. It was in the timeframe after the “Trial of the Century,” but before the sports paraphernalia trial, that would eventually send him to prison. We had a lobby bar and OJ would come down every morning and hold court for a couple of hours. Now I have seen countless numbers of celebrities at the hotel in my 23 years of service. Almost all of them wear hats and sunglasses and keep moving to avoid unnecessary interaction with the public. OJ, on the other hand, would come down each morning and do what can only be described as preening. He would strut up and down the lobby to make sure that as many people as possible saw him. Then he would sit at a prominent table and converse with, and sign autographs for, anyone that dropped in. If people had nothing to sign, he would sign a cocktail napkin. I also found that he was polarizing with the guests of the hotel. Half were delighted to see him and half were disgusted that we would even allow him to stay there. Not sure what that says about him, but I can tell you that it is unique in all of the celebrities that I have encountered.

Rico Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 "David Cook, who represents Ron’s father, Fred Goldman, said that the judgment in the case has now risen to $114 million due to interest. As of February 2021, Simpson had only paid around $133,000 of the settlement, according to KNTV, which cited a Nevada court filing." Fred Goldman.

Gets disgraced, then wants to be loved again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read that in one sitting at Barnes. Still did not answer that crime for me. I need to go back and read the counter arguments for his son, Jason, doing it. The insight FOR was really good.

BillsPride12 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 I highly recommend people give this Documentary a full watch and then come back and give your opinions on what a great guy OJ was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skibum Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 OJ never truly acted like an innocent man in any way, besides empty words. He absolutely did it, and I think he spent the rest of his life trying to convince the world, and himself, that he didn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
