Talk:Mathews Bridge

Accidents?

I have heard of several terrible accidents that have happened on the Mathews, and I can believe it due to the horrible grating that is already mentioned in the article, but is there any tally of how many wrecks there have been up to date? That would be something interesting to add. Maria 13:30, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Removal of Popular Culture section

This was removed because it was misleading and apocryphal, at best. Of the two facts in this section one was about a video game that changed the bridge. There is no support for the claim that the bridge in the game is meant to represent this bridge. It is a generic cantilever bridge.

The other claim is not only spurious - it's wrong. "Take it to the Matthews Bridge" regards a musical bridge (between the second and third stanza) that was created by Dave Matthews and Limp Bizkit durring a jam session. The record of the story can be found easily. Padillah (talk) 19:17, 5 October 2017 (UTC)
