In middlegate, nevada, what wacky roadside attraction can you find?

Answer 1

In middlegate, Nevada is known to be the loneliest road with a “Shoe Tree” as a center of attraction on the side of the road.

Further Explanations:

The cottonwood tree or Shoe Tree is just off the Highway 50, and people walking through this road can't deny to visit this peculiar spot.  Locals and tourists hang colorful footwear on its branches and was thus named“Shoe tree”. The Shoe tree was unfortunately slashed down by a group of vandals in 2010. However, in 2017, some native citizens started hanging shoes on a new Cottonwood tree nearby, titling it as the new Shoe tree.

The tree has interesting traditional stories behind it. Popular folklore says that a couple living below the tree once had a quarrel, and the wife threatened to leave the husband. The man threw her shoes on the trees, saying that she would have to do it barefoot. After then, he went to a nearby bar where the friendly bartender advised him to go back and reunite with his wife. He returned home and settled his differences with his wife, and after a few years, they had a child. The couple took their child’s shoes and threw them on the tree as a sign of good luck for their family. Since then, the tradition has continued among the people and has spread to tourists alike. The tradition involves binding their footwear to the branch of the tree, and driving the rest of the journey's end ahead, barefoot.
