I'm thinking these events were a while ago, but not quite as long ago as they seem to be, if you follow me. So I'll guess 1992.

do we get more than one guess? I think it was in the 80's because Chevy was big.And since elections are every 2 years that why I guessed 86. Sonny Bono was mayor then a congressman at least a couple of terms&he died in the 90's.Any ideas anybody?

You're right that I should have gone with my first instinct, which was only one year off. Rob and I are both out of the game this question because he looked up the answer after I told him what I had posted.
Hope everyone is having a lovely Easter!
