Nostalgic Nineties- Ep. 2: Tonya Harding and Nancy’s Knee

As we all know, unless you were living under a rock which is cool too, the '90s took 2023 by storm. Butterfly clips, gigantic pants, Ed Hardy and Juicy all unfortunately came back, so let's bring back some of the cool stuff from the '90s too... like the crimes we alllll remember!

This week, Ash tells Fallon about Tonya Harding and her infamous rivalry with fellow figure skater, Nancy Kerrigan. Tonya Harding was and is one of the most talented figure skaters to have graced the ice, but she was always a little too poor and rough around the edges for this glamour world's liking. But Tonya is less remembered for her triple axels, and more for Nancy Kerrigan's injury to the leg, right above the knee. But just how much responsibility did Tonya actually have in this incident?
