It’s a dumb prank. Some kids have tied shoes together and tossed them onto the wires.
Someone once told me a long time ago it was connected to drug dealing years ago, but i have no clue if its true as i never did drugs as a child, up till my late 20 ties so i was never connected to the ins and outs. It was something about marking locations.
Somebody tried to walk down the line?

this is probably one of the oldest kid pranks since electric wires became a thing, and a global phenomenon.
i was both victim and perpetrator in my podstawówka in the seventies, and I read much later that it was similarly popular in the american high schools, where it attained an urban myth that it was a sign of drug dealers nearby.
I know from friends that its also a thing in France, Morocco and Japan, so its definitely not a regional phenomenon
Some pranksters who tried to mock American gang culture (as seen in the movies).
Many years ago soldiers released from mandatory service often threw their PT shoes just like that or on some tree in front of unit’s gate.
In the usa that is where you go buy drugs. At least it was in the 90s and early 2000s
Methods of Resistance against Nasi occupation converted into prank from kids.
It was accidentally advertised in Kamienie na Szaniec which is a mandatory lecture in Poland.
Shoes
It usually marks a spot where you can meet drug dealers.
Marking of gang territory
no point, it’s just a dumb “custom” for the lack of a better word
It used to mean that you could buy drugs around there, now its maybe more of prank/boredeom
that reminds me of this silly song. There goes my brain for the night. Thank you.
Wym is that useful? Of course it is. Storks migrate to Poland in spring but they know kwieceń plecień really does przeplata so they have shoes just in case.
Originally it means they sell drugs there but nowadays nobody knows this and just do it because they saw it somewhere and wanna do it too. Since it’s Poland, they probably saw it at Poland Rock Festival cause there is a tradition like this there.
