I remember when NIN was KNIN!
~ Bobbie BJ Reynolds

Editor's note: Back in the mid 90s we were looking for a way to freshen up the image of the station without losing its legacy, so the 'K' was dropped and the station became what it is today - 92.9 NIN. However, the legal call letters of the station are still KNIN. 

I remember when 92.9 NIN was in a little building off Old Iowa Park Road instead of where they are now! (Fidelity Bank Building in Parker Square)

Because this is the only place I could ever call home. No matter where I move in the future, I am who I am because I grew up here with my people. I remember people from the city coming to Austin Elementary and showing us blueprints and info about the construction on the new bridges we were getting. Then, the next 10 years or so watching the progress.

I played softball at Tesco Park, Loch Lomond, Scotland Park, and Bridwell Park.
