Timeline 2020 - Chron 1
Hello and welcome to Timeline 2020. Today's chron is all about one decade: the 1990s, so let's party like...you know the rest.
Match each event listed below with the specific year it occurred in the 1990s. Two points for each correct answer. See Year Well for a list of years in that decade (you're welcome).
- 12th U.S. President Zachary Taylor, who died 141 years earlier, is exhumed to discover whether or not his death was caused by arsenic poisoning, instead of acute gastrointestinal illness; no trace of arsenic is found.
- Branch Davidians standoff and fire near Waco, Texas, resulting in the deaths of 81 people including their leader, David Koresh.
- Centennial Olympic Park bombing at Summer Olympics in Atlanta kills 1 and injures 111.
- The Chicago Bulls win their 6th NBA title in 8 years when they beat the Utah Jazzin Game 6. This is also Michael Jordan's last game as a Bull, clinching the game in the final seconds on a fadeaway jumper.
- During the Evander Holyfield vs. Mike Tyson II boxing match in Las Vegas, Mike Tyson bites off part of Evander Holyfield's ear.
- Los Angeles riots result in over 60 deaths and $1 billion in damage, spurred by the acquittal of four Los Angeles Police Department officers accused in the videotaped beating of black motorist Rodney King.
- Northridge earthquake kills 72 and injures 9,000 in the Los Angeles area and causes $20 billion in damage.
- O. J. Simpson is acquitted of two charges of first-degree murder in the slayings of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and Ronald Goldman. The nine-month trial receives worldwide publicity.
- STS-31: The Hubble Space Telescope is launched aboard Space Shuttle Discovery.

Timeline 2020 - Chron 1
Hello and welcome to Timeline 2020. Today's chron is all about one decade: the 1990s, so let's party like...you know the rest.
Match each event listed below with the specific year it occurred in the 1990s. Two points for each correct answer. See Year Well for a list of years in that decade (you're welcome).
Year Well:
1990 - Branch Davidians standoff and fire near Waco, Texas, resulting in the deaths of 81 people including their leader, David Koresh.
1991 - STS-31: The Hubble Space Telescope is launched aboard Space Shuttle Discovery.
1992 - Los Angeles riots result in over 60 deaths and $1 billion in damage, spurred by the acquittal of four Los Angeles Police Department officers accused in the videotaped beating of black motorist Rodney King.
1993 - 12th U.S. President Zachary Taylor, who died 141 years earlier, is exhumed to discover whether or not his death was caused by arsenic poisoning, instead of acute gastrointestinal illness; no trace of arsenic is found.
1994 - Northridge earthquake kills 72 and injures 9,000 in the Los Angeles area and causes $20 billion in damage.
1995 - O. J. Simpson is acquitted of two charges of first-degree murder in the slayings of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and Ronald Goldman. The nine-month trial receives worldwide publicity.
