Let's make this birthday one to remember.

74 years old (Born on August 02, 1950)

Happy Birthday, Judge Lance Ito! May your special day be filled with more joy than a courtroom recess and fewer objections from the birthday candles. Your calm demeanor during one of history's most televised trials made you an unforgettable figure—proving that even under intense scrutiny, justice (and patience) can prevail.

Though years have passed since those iconic days presiding over O.J.'s trial, you've remained timelessly memorable in pop culture references everywhere—from late-night comedy sketches to trivia nights worldwide. Here's hoping this year brings plenty of laughter without any sidebar conferences or jury deliberations required!

Enjoy your verdict: another fantastic trip around the sun!
