This unlikely sport has its origins in Great Britain where the participants compete to throw a Wellington Boot the farthest, aptly called “Wellie Wanging”. New Zealand's version of Wellington Boots are called Gumboots which are basically rubber waders or galoshes popular among farmers, outdoor workers and a perennial favorite for Kiwi kids. The North Island's rural community called Taihape prides itself on its odd flurry of flying boots, especially during its annual Gumboot Day. Granted, one may practice year round at the town's official gumboot throwing lane located behind the main shopping center. Since 1985 people have been flocking to the gumboot throwing capital to win the coveted Gumboot Trophy. Finland has also joined in the fun with a very similar equivalent to the annual Kiwi tradition. North America still grapples with the meaning of shoe throwing. In the Middle East, however, there's no debate that shoe throwing is a deep insult and expression of serious contempt. Iraqis showed their contempt towards Saddam Hussein by taking off their shoes and beating his statue.
No one can forget the Iraqi journalist, Muntadhar al-Zaidi who chucked both of his size 10 shoes at former President George Bush. Unlike shoefiti, shoe treefiti seems to remain a uniquely American “tradition”. I'm referring to the practice of people tossing their shoes with the goal of hanging them on out of reach branches. Again, people wonder why. The resounding answer seems to be why not. Probably there are a plethora of reasons, some more obvious than others. In reality, there are probably as many reasons as there are shoes dangling from these symbolic trees. Some shoe trees have been spotted at universities, near fraternities where they are thought to represent sexual conquests. No doubt there are quite a few staunch graffiti opponents, and rightly so. I will admit I've occasionally ogled at some of the pure talent displayed by some graffiti artists. It's called Knitta, Please and they are a group of knit and crochet artists adorning a wide variety of public spaces, most notably street signs, lamp posts, trees and fire hydrants. Started by a group in Dallas, TX in 2005, they are still fairly new to the scene.
