    • Historical
  • The Heidi Game: NBC cuts off the final 1:05 of an Oakland Raider v. New York Jets football game to broadcast the pre-scheduled Heidi. Fans are unable to see Oakland (which had been trailing 32-29) score 2 late touchdowns to win 43-32; as a result, thousands of outraged football fans flood the NBC switchboards to protest.
