Bronzing Shoes.

Fun Fact:

Yesterday at the double header, SDSU athletics bronzed the shoes of former athlete Casey Hillman after he walked across SD to raise money for the SDState athletic scholarship fund.  Here is the full scoop.

I had never seen or heard of this being done.  As I touched the shoe's inside, I asked if these were his ACTUAL shoes he used.  Burgers confirmed they were.  My response "ewww that is kind of nasty" and I walked away.

But I started to think about my running shoes.  As of right now after I am finished with a pair of running shoes.  I wash them and hang them from my bedroom wall back in webster.  Currently I have 4 pairs on the wall dating back to high school (I have 2 more pairs at Brookings that need to go up).

First off, my mom HATES me nailing it into the wall.  Secondly, she thinks it is gross.  So, why not spice it up a bit with a nice bronze coat.  Unfortunately I think it costs a pretty penny, and I am not going to spray paint them bronze either… TACKY.

As of right now, my only bronzing may come if I ever complete a marathon.
