ESPN: 30 for 30: June 17, 1994 - Brett Morgen

June 17, 1994 - Brett Morgen

Do you remember where you were on June 17, 1994? 

Thanks to a wide array of unrelated, coast-to-coast occurrences, this Friday has come to be known for its firsts, lasts, triumphs and tragedy. 

Arnold Palmer played his last round at a U.S. Open in Oakmont, Pa.

The FIFA World Cup kicked off in Chicago 

The New York Rangers celebrated on Broadway 

Patrick Ewing desperately pursued a long evasive championship in the Garden

Donald Fehr stared down the baseball owners. 

And yet, all of that was a prelude to O.J. Simpson leading America on a slow speed chase in a white Ford Bronco around Los Angeles. 

Oscar-nominated and Peabody Award-winning director Brett Morgen artistically weaves these moments and others to create a unique and reflective look at a day that no sports fan could forget.
