I'm sure a lot of us in Minneapolis have been on that bridge many times and never thought anything of it. Pretty scary sitting on that bridge in rush hour stopped on the bridge and feeling the large trucks rumble past shaking the deck below you. Scary stuff. I drive across the Minnesota Bridge on I35 every day and I definately said some extra prayers this morning as I sat on top of it in at 6:30am. My buddy crossed that bridge at 5:55PM. 5 minutes later and well......
I've driven across it a time or two and when I saw the first post here, it was like "OH MY GOD" --
I have a slight fear of heights, but kinda like bluestater's mom, some bridges just scare the crap out of me. ... I even had nightmares as a kid bout driving off one particular one in Tappahannock, Va. ... I still get chills when I have to drive over that bridge.
Prayers to the Minny folks ... I drove through there last week.
