In the video clip down below, Buss explains how OJ came to a Lakers game very soon after his acquittal. Buss recalled telling the employees to treat him just like anyone else. This eventually led to OJ parking in a restricted zone and getting his car towed. Buss offered a great one-liner at the end, which wrapped up the story nicely.
