O.J. Simpson Watch: Autograph Day
O.J. Simpson ponders a reporter’s question as he signs autographs Friday, Sept. 30, 2005, during an event hosted by the ‘NecroComicon’ horror convention at Pacific Northridge Cinemas in Northridge, Calif.
The ASSociated Press has O.J.: Horror-Convention Setting ‘Strange’.
A decade after he was acquitted of killing his ex-wife and her friend, O.J. Simpson was back in Los Angeles autographing sports memorabilia for people attending a horror movie convention.
Simpson said Friday it felt “strange” to be signing autographs in such a venue. He said it did not occur to him that the date nearly coincided with the 10th anniversary of his Oct. 3, 1995, acquittal on charges of murdering his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman.
“I don’t keep these dates in my head,” he told The Associated Press while signing various items with the inscription “O.J. Simpson ’68 Heisman,” a reference to the year he won college football’s Heisman Trophy.
He said the only anniversary he observes is when he and his children mark their mother’s birthday with a cake.
Sick.
Simpson will be appearing through Sunday at the convention and Al Cowlings will be appearing Sunday.
