I’m sure you’ve seen by now, news broke earlier this morning that OJ Simpson is dead at age 76.
In case you missed the details or want to read more, I’ll post that full report down below.
But right now I want to celebrate and commemorate the life of Orenthal the best way I know how….
With 11 minutes straight of Norm Macdonald doing OJ jokes!
I mean, he killed his wife and a waiter (allegedly!) so don’t be coming in here with any complaints or saying it’s in bad taste.
Killing two people was in bad taste, this is just funny.
Man I sure do miss Norm.
Enjoy:
In honor of OJ Simpson’s death, I give you the best way I know how to celebrate:

BREAKING: OJ Simpson Dead At 76
Former NFL star O.J. Simpson, whose legacy was forever tainted by his murder trial in three decades ago and subsequent prison sentence on different charges, has died at the age of 76, according to his family.
On April 10th, our father, Orenthal James Simpson, succumbed to his battle with cancer.
He was surrounded by his children and grandchildren.
During this time of transition, his family asks that you please respect their wishes for privacy and grace.

As the New York Post reported:
O.J. Simpson — who became one of the most infamous figures in the US during his murder trial in the ’90s — has died after a cancer battle.
The former NFL star died Wednesday in Las Vegas, his family confirmed. He was 76.
“On April 10th, our father, Orenthal James Simpson, succumbed to his battle with cancer,” the family wrote on X on Thursday.
“He was surrounded by his children and grandchildren. During this time of transition, his family asks that you please respect their wishes for privacy and grace,” the brief statement added.

Simpson had referenced his health challenges recently, though the severity of his illness was not publicly known until his death was confirmed.
According to TMZ:
Adding to the mystery was the fact O.J. actually touched on a cancer diagnosis in 2023 in a video he posted on X — when he said he’d “caught” some form of cancer, but suggested he’d beaten it. In any case, the cancer came back and claimed his life about a year later.
O.J. had been looking frail in the lead-up to his passing … including during an outing in January when he was spotted using a cane.
The last time O.J. posted was a video of himself talking about Super Bowl LVIII, where he said he was rooting for his former team the San Francisco 49ers. He seemed to be in good spirits then. He was seated in the clip and talking from the backyard of a home.
