What are some global news events that you remember exactly where you were when they happened?

Here’s what comes to mind for me:

- 9/11
- 2008 US Election Night 
- 2016 US Election Night

The NBA suspending the season after Rudy Gobert testing positive was a key memory for me in the onset of covid

First realization that covid was a big deal

1st and 3rd of yours, Mac Miller, Kobe, and too soon to tell but probably last Saturday.

Kobe death (was at my parents)
