What did they do with the bolts made out of candy canes that they used originally to bolt it together?
It would be funny if it were not so infuriating how much money they squandered on that bridge.

I made it almost all the way from SF to the East Bay the day after the '89 earthquake.
Rode my mountain bike on the lower deck to where the bridge had collapsed. They had those concrete barriers up, but with a gap between them about 2-3 feet wide. I was checking it out, and heard a motor, coming fast. SFPD motorcycle cop roars up, "What are you doing?" Told him I was just checking it out, he tells me, "You can't be out here, get off the bridge." He then turns around, and takes off. Guess he had better things to do than write some dummy a ticket for riding around on a partially collapsed bridge.
