Home and Auto Why do people put tires on the roof of their home?

First off, the "Home and Auto" prefix works perfectly on this thread. But on to the topic.

I've been driving through a very rural area the past couple of days. Yesterday I saw a mobile home with a bunch of tires scattered on its roof. I pondered the reason and wondered if perhaps winds could cause a mobile home roof to resonate or something.

But over the past 36 hours I've seen several more homes with tires on their roof, and most of them weren't mobile homes. They were stick-and-brick homes that just happened to have numerous tires scattered on their roofs.

Why do people do this?
