Giant Shoes Downtown?

Post by deek »

Does anyone know what the deal is with these? They are in a similar style to the Mastadons on Parade, but they are gieant sneakers...

Just curious, as I haven't heard or found anything about them.

Rumor on the street is that as of this year, Fort Wayne will begin leaving Christmas decorations up year-round.

Next year's theme...pink flamingos and old couches.

I don't recall why and I haven't seen them downtown but I'm assuming they are the same shoes they had all over Glenbrook Mall.

Well, they sure did a heckuva job promoting this one....

In June a bunch of amateur basketball championship games are being played at Speice Fieldhouse. These shoes were purchased by corporate sponsors to promote those games.... they'll end up at Speice Fieldhouse for the tourney.

Had to rub my eyes going past them earlier this week by Headwaters.

Also saw them in Glenbrook,... scratching my noggin.

Enjoyed the Mastadons, but these,... yawns....

They ran a quick 1 minute story on the news a few weeks ago...your standard Fort Wayne publicity...

Stepping up or stepping out or something...I can't even remember it was so fast...

Much like everything else in this town...we will hear about it MONTHS after we are able to get involved...:)
