Way-back Playback: The Aussie Open flood of '95
Andre Agassi was a human tidal wave at the 1995 Australian Open, cruising to a championship win.
But when the floodgates opened in the semifinal between he and Aaron Krickstein, there was nothing the eventual champ could do.
The Americans were forced to play indoors at Rod Laver Arena due to extreme weather conditions, and the next 24 hours saw one of the most bizarre incidents in the tournament's storied history.
The stadium became the scene of a disaster when the drainage system failed after a power outage and rainwater seeped onto center court, flooding the grounds.
Due on court after the semifinal were reigning doubles champions Gigi Fernandez and Natasha Zvereva, who weren't scared by a little water.
The duo pranced onto center court, barefoot and all, and began dancing around. Their behavior threw the crowd into a frenzy, turning the event into a party amid a mini natural disaster.
The flood spread to all parts of Melbourne Park and a massive cleanup was underway to get the tournament up and running a day later.
To this day it remains one of the more memorable Aussie Open moments that had nothing to do with tennis.
