One example I've seen mentioned several times is 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-35W_Mississippi_River_bridge . Because 
people made stubs for every crossing of the Mississippi River in and 
below the Twin Cities, we had an article - 
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=I-35W_Mississippi_River_bridge&oldid=141410051 
- before the bridge collapsed.
