Shoe Statues (especially in Iraq)
A lot of people thought it was awesome when Former President Bush reacted like a cat and dodged a shoe. A lot more people thought that the guy who threw the shoe was even more awesome.
I don’t know if you have seen this already, but the guy that threw the shoe is being honored in Saddam’s hometown of Tikrit. A Baghdad-based artist made a huge shoe statue out of copper and fiberglass as a tribute to the pride of the Iraqi people.
The shoe statue was taken down shortly, however, because in Iraq you aren’t supposed to display government property that has political bias.
The shoe statue intrigued me and I decided to search for more giant shoes.
I’m not quite sure what is going on in that picture.
This shoe-house playground thing is in India.
That’s kind of cool I guess.
This shoe is an actual full-sized house! It’s located in Hellam, Pennsylvania off of the Lincoln Highway if you ever want to visit.
This was really a strange update. Rather pointless.
Stay tuned for other stuff!
