40 Years After flood of 1965Savage Pacer - Nancy Huddleston 2005
April 9, 2005, Savage Pacer
Airlift to season opener
Four Minnesota Twins baseball players living in Burnsville beat the traffic jams by getting an air lift to the 1965 seasons opening game with the New YorkYankees. Rich Rollins, Dick Stigman,Bill Bethea and Jim Kaat were picked up by helicopter at Burnsville High School at 9:30 a.m. and returned after the game . Several classes of elementary age children located in the west wing of the building were thrilled to see the Twins waiting outside their school.
35W a vast, quiet lake
Interstate35W was new in 1965and was usually humming with cars and trucks. It was submerged under a vast, quiet lake dotted with a few trees and road signs and closed off for a week between Bloomington and Highway 13.
The only traffic near the highway was a rowboat that was moored at the entrance to the Embassy Club and colorful pleasure boats of Aqua Craft Inc. that floated unperturbed in a neat row near the water-coveredmarina on the Bloomington side of the river.
Since all area river crossings were under water, motorists had to travelHighway 13to the Mendota Bridge. At times, traffic was backed up to BurnsvilleHigh School and was not moving
at all. So, motorists in the area of the River Hills neighborhood in Burnsvillemade the best of the situation by getting up a roadside ball game.
Many Burnsville residents with downtown jobs simply rented hotel rooms and stayed in town until the flood waters receded.
