The Meaning Behind Shoes Strung Up On A Power Line
Maybe it seems like a fun thing to do with a pair of old sneakers. And like so many other behaviors, people see the first pair flung up there and decide to follow suit. To me, this is a prime of example of just kids being kids.
That being said, you really shouldn’t be throwing sneakers (or anything, for that matter) up on to a power line. Interfering with a power line in any way is extremely dangerous, and it also creates unsafe work for the power line companies whose employees will at some point be responsible for removing the sneakers.
If you have a pair of old sneakers, donate them! And if they’re not in good enough shape to donate, simply chuck them in the trash.
Shoes aren’t the only unusual thing up there—learn what those colorful balls mean.
