What happened in 1996?

Question

Hi. I am an RA and I am doing a bulletin board on current events/ pop culture from 1996....any ideas? So far I have things like the N64 gets released, OJ Simpson trial FINALLY over, Leo DiCaprio in Romeo & Juliet, Tickle Me Elmo released.....any other ideas? Most of my residents were born in 86'/87' area, so I want to do stuff they can relate to and feel equally OLD about being able to relate to!!
