"Courtesy of the relentless contributions of numerous anonymous passerbys, this tree bears the fruit of countless pairs of shoes.
Most are tied together in pairs or clumps and flung high into the branches, with the lowest shoes at least 15 feet off the desert floor. Some hang from shoelaces, others are linked by bras or underwear. Nobody seems to know exactly how this shoe tree got started, but it seems to have originated sometime in the mid 80s."
I was backpacking in the south island of New Zealand with some mates & we came across a stretch of farm fence covered with hundreds of women's bras, kinda similar to this! Apparently, it was started off by some drunken local lasses and now anyone going by stops and whips off their goodie bags to hang in the breeze, tourists & NZ'ers alike!
I've always thought it would be a great idea to open a home maintenance and repair company named "Ghost Busters" or similar. "Chills? Squeaking? Banging? We'll find and repair your ghosts."
