This day in History

In 2004, Justin Timberlake ripped off Janet Jackson's bra at the Super Bowl. The term "wardrobe malfunction" was born. Does anyone remember who actually played in - and won - that game?

In 2003, the space shuttle Columbia disintegrates upon reentry into Earth's atmosphere. All seven astronauts on board perish.

In 1978, Roman Polanski flees the U.S. after pleading guilty to having sexual relations with a 13-year-old girl. He has never returned to American soil, because he would be immediately taken into custody if he did so.

"Black History Month" begins today.
