Chayesh Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 ...and say a prayer, think a happy thought, whatever is your particular persuasion for the people of the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. Our hearts go out to our players from the Lesser White North (Greater being Canada) and anyone from that catastrophe was injured or lost someone.

kahlos Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 That was a total nightmare... I always MARVEL at how awesome bridges are and how they are built/stay up.. but everytime I drive across a bridge I imagine it falling down but I never thought it would happen AGAIN in my lifetime. (Yes I experienced one when I was a kid). Tragic day indeed and my prayers and condolences go out to the families who lost loved ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest emp_newb Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 Yet another reason Behrens makes as much money as he does. For some reason people have a high demand for structures that do not foll over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizz Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 I once crossed an old bridge in my parents motorhome on a gorge over the Missouri River that was restricted down to only 1 car at a time... and it wasn't a dinky bridge either. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pali Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 So... I take it a bridge collapsed? *has no clue what happened* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizz Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 A bridge in Minneapolis collapsed this last week during rush hour. The last I heard, there are 8 people confirmed dead. It's probably more than that. It turns out the bridge failed inspection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
