Then my shoes proceeded to go real high and hit the roof. I put them back on they feel more confident now. we need higher standards now.Shoe launching is up there for the greastest second use of a pole.
not to be a jerk, and im sure it is fun to launch shoes, but am i the only one that sees this as abuse to a perfectly good pole? also, i could easily throw a shoe over 21 feet with my own arm and i am not particularly good at throwing.
i guess it might make sense if it was someone elses shoes being launched, as was discussed in Bring It
