Though not as common today, seeing sneakers tied together and tossed onto power lines used to be a familiar sight. While I thought it was just something neighborhood kids did, several theories exist about its meaning. One suggests soldiers threw boots onto power lines after completing training, possibly inspiring other theories. Another links it to gangs marking territory, though unproven. Some believe it’s a form of bullying, recalling movies where bullies tossed a kid’s shoes. However, the most common theory—one I agree with—is that people do it “just because.” It’s simply a fun, spontaneous activity that others start copying.
