O.J. Simpson: That Lonely Guy Who'll Talk To Anyone On A Plane [Captive Audiences]

O.J. Simpson: That Lonely Guy Who'll Talk To Anyone On A Plane [Captive Audiences]
"He knows in his heart he is totally innocent of these charges and believes in the jury system," O.J. Simpson attorney Yale Galanter said yesterday upon learning his client would stand trial for the now-infamous -recovery armed ambush of two sports memorabilia dealers in a third-rate Las Vegas hotel room. And while we have no doubt Galanter is at this very moment frantically scribbling down and crossing out potential catchphrases on a legal pad ("If the gun don't load, it can't explode!"), Simpson is clinging to the sunny side of life, even chatting up his fellow Delta passengers on a recent flight of Las Vegas to Fort Lauderdale. Reports a Page Six source:

"[S]uddenly, the boisterous voice of a man aroused me from my almost-sleep. It was OJ Simpson, and he was sitting right behind me. He was beyond chatty, to the point of being manic. He would talk to anyone that listened to him."
First, the double-murder acquitee yammered on about his latest brush with the law - being charged with kidnapping and robbery for allegedly sticking up two sports dealers he claims ripped off his memorabilia. "He said he knew this guy, the guy had helped him move out and put a lot of his stuff in warehouses, and he stole the stuff. Claims there were pictures of his family, etc., etc. Claimed the gun part was '[bleep]ing bull[bleep]' - but he didn't sound all that convincing," our spy said.

Then it was on to his knowledge of brewing. "He was talking to two Mexican guys and he claimed that Dos Equis is really a German beer, made in Mexico." [...]

Later, at the baggage claim, the disgraced athlete "noticed a kid in a Bills jersey and was like, 'Yeah, Buffalo Bills, baby.' "



If Simpson's cheerful volunteering of the time he "very nearly strangled an airport bartender to death for serving a Tecate when I specifically ordered a Beck's--ha ha!" seems unusual for a man who was days away from standing before a judge on kidnapping charges, you've obviously not walked a mile in his Bruno Maglis, for, as his lawyer explained, this is a man who has no reason but to put his every faith in the American judicial system's ability to take him at his word when he insists he is innocent of the charges for which he is extremely guilty.
