On January 28, 2022, at 6.39 a.m. EST, the Fern Hollow Bridge in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania collapsed. Due to the timing of the failure, thankfully, fewer vehicles were on the bridge and only ten people were injured with no fatalities. Pittsburgh, also known as the City of Bridges, was getting ready for a visit from President Biden that day. Biden visited the collapse site and assured federal assistance to rebuild the bridge on the spot. This infrastructural failure, coinciding with a high-profile political visit and a push towards passing the Build Back Better infrastructure bill, attracted considerable media attention to the flailing infrastructural health in the US. As we were sifting through the social web discussions surrounding this issue, broad themes such as words of compassion for the victims and typical responses in social web political discourse such as political name-calling, conspiracy theories, and partisan mud-slinging emerged. However, apart from these expected social web reactions, we noticed a small minority of interactions that talked about anticipatory failures of other bridges in the US.
