Narrative:

During landing roll, felt wheel lock up at approximately 60 KTS. After clearing runway, airport crew in vehicle reported a blown tire. Elected to taxi to gate without closer inspection by maintenance due to aircraft behind us being blocked if we stopped. Fortunately, only 1 tire blown and no additional damage to aircraft. In retrospect, wish we had had a more complete inspection.
