From CBS6:

“‘What is that noise?’ I asked. I looked up and there was this huge table laying in the center of the walk area of the pedestrian bridge,” Davis said.

She said she believed somehow a banquet table fell nearly 60 feet from a gaping space above the pedestrian walkway from the Lee Bridge.

“I just kept thinking oh God, I was just standing there and then there’s a little family they could’ve been hit by it. It certainly would have killed someone. It was all metal,” Davis explained.

I’ve heard of it raining men, raining cats and dogs, raining on the parade but I’ve never heard of it raining banquet tables. Thankfully nobody was hurt and the table has since be removed by the city.
