I invite you to take a journey with me, back in time to 1995 to an event so significant Wikipedia doesn't even mention it on the 1995 events page:
LINK

first, you will have to look the part:
if casual is your style, try something like this


or maybe the younger, more contemporary crowd is more your style



some events of significance:

January 29 – Super Bowl XXIX: The San Francisco 49ers become the first National Football League franchise to win five Super Bowls, as they defeat the San Diego Chargers at Joe Robbie Stadium in Miami, Florida.

February 23 – The Dow Jones Industrial Average gains 30.28 to close at 4,003.33 – the Dow's first ever close above 4,000.

March 1 – Yahoo! is founded in Santa Clara, California.

March 16 – Mississippi ratifies the Thirteenth Amendment, becoming the last state to approve the abolition of slavery. The amendment was nationally ratified in 1865. However it didn't make it official until 2013.

March 27 – The 67th Academy Awards, hosted by David Letterman, are held at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, California, with Forrest Gump winning Best Picture.

April 19 – Oklahoma City bombing: 168 people, including 8 Federal Marshals and 19 children, are killed at the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. Timothy McVeigh and one of his accomplices, Terry Nichols, set off the bomb.

August 24 – Microsoft releases Windows 95.

September 6 – Cal Ripken, Jr. of the Baltimore Orioles breaks the all time consecutive games played record in Major League Baseball.

October 3 – O. J. Simpson is found not guilty of double murder for the deaths of former wife Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman.

I fear you put too much work into this.

It seems petty.

Look, bubba. us in the industry refer to the rocks as CC because of james. he's the former 2x players mvp and by my metrics he is in line to win the mvp this season easily.

winning culture = cc and thats the rocks, bubba

So painful for me to think about those teams because it forces me to remember that Magic team and how tragic it was they never put it all together. Such a great squad and fun to watch

God the mid 90s had some nice looking cars and some serious clunkers lol.

RX-7 Twin Turbo Z and the E36 M3 are some of the best cars ever.
