1993: The first World Trade Center attack

On this day in 1993, a terrorist bomb exploded in a World Trade Center parking lot in New York City.   It left a crater 60 feet wide and caused the collapse of several steel-reinforced concrete floors in the vicinity of the blast.   Six people were killed and 1,000 injured. 

We remind you that this attack happened 10 years before the US invaded Iraq.

1993: Elvis US postage stamp

On this day in 1993, the US Post Office released the first Elvis 29 cents stamp.   

It sold quickly and I remember the lines.   

I finally got my sheet of stamps a week later.   It was a great image!

1993 AFC Wild Card game: Buffalo Bills' amazing comeback

Many of us remember this game on TV or the day that Frank Reich led the Bills to a 41-38 overtime victory over the Houston Oilers.    

At one point, Buffalo was down 28-3 then came the comeback of comebacks.

Buffalo went on to win the AFC title and lose to Dallas in the Super Bowl.   The Bills were coached by Mark Levy.
