Huge Tennis Shoe

I have to say that my kids LOVED the big shoe! One is 2 and one is 6. I am so glad that we stopped to see this. [Diggy, 11/28/2010]

Car-Sized Sneaker

Looks like a new sneaker or repainted. Across the street from the Wal-Mart. Nice to see -- not quite 3 miles off of I 70. [Jon, 08/22/2010]

[RA: It's the same sneaker, made over in different colors.]
