"A similar shoe tree on old Route 66 near Amboy in California's San Bernardino County fell last year, perhaps partly because of the weight of the shoes. A nearby bush is reportedly now festooned with socks."

I saw the one on 50 years ago - awful that some a-holes would do something like that.

I remember that one, Flyin Boy and I spotted it on our way out to Utah. We were going to stop and shoot some video there on the way back but were running late and blew it off. Rats, we won't get a second chance.
