Bridge Award Named After Procrastinators for Betsy Ross Span
The Procrastinator's Club of America plans a special award for the Betsy Ross Bridge over the Delaware River between Philadelphia and Pennsauken. They joke the span should be named The Bridge Over the River Why, noting delays due to unfinished Pennsylvania ramps and delaying opening beyond its $105 million cost. Members and volunteers, including registrars and canteen organizers, are listed, with a cheeky prediction that a name change could delay opening further.
