Welcome to the Jam: The looney story of the decades-old ‘Space Jam’ website

March 13, 2025

In 1996, that team had an especially big movie to market starring the Looney Tunes and NBA legend Michael Jordan: “Space Jam.” What differentiates this site from the rest is something so unlikely that it sparked a viral moment of collective glee among nostalgic “Space Jam” fans and web nerds alike: this 29-year-old website is still up. Not only that, but the site still looks and functions today exactly as it did in 1996.

WBUR, the Boston’s NPR radio station has a story on one of the Web’s first breakout sites, Space Jam, the site built for an animated/live action cross over Disney film of the mid 90’s featuring Bugs Bunny and Michael Jordan.

It unlike almost the entire web at the time, is still online and unchanged.
