The scenario you describe was what happened with the Air Canada flight: 28L was closed and lights off, so the Air Canada flight that was cleared to land on 28R

The scenario you describe was what happened with the Air Canada flight: 28L was closed and lights off, so the Air Canada flight that was cleared to land on 28R nearly landed on taxiway C, where 4 airplanes were sitting waiting to take off (and apparently came within less than 5 meters (15 feet) of hitting one of them). This btw also points to problems with the NOTAM system.
