8000 foot runway is decently long. I believe Chicago Midway is only 6500 feet long and is adequate for 737's (but still on the short side), Although they had a Southwest airlines landing long and ended up crashed into a gas station past the runway. The pilot should have gone around after floating for 2000 feet, but we will need to know if the crosswinds were strong, visibility etc.
