SILLY STATE LAWS
Check out this array of crazy codes of conduct from across the nation. Some are no longer on the books (thank goodness), others are truly letter-of-the-law lunacy.
FLORIDA: Doors that open inward, instead of outward
NEW HAMPSHIRE: Don’t even think about collecting seaweed at night
SOUTH CAROLINA: There’s no playing with pinball machines until you’re 18
ALASKA: It is considered an offense to push a live moose out of a moving airplane
HAWAII: Coins are not allowed to be placed in one’s ears
NEW YORK: A person may not walk around on Sundays with an ice cream cone in his/her pocket
INDIANA: Hotel sheets must be exactly 99 inches long and 81 inches wide
VERMONT: Women must obtain written permission from their husbands to wear false teeth
COLORADO: It is illegal to ride a horse while under the influence
ALABAMA: Boogers may not be flicked into the wind

ReplyDeleteVery cool...and definitely silly! I must look up correspondingly foolish laws in Canada...I have no doubt they exist...:)

ReplyDeleteMy only question is why would a New Yorker even think of walking around with ice cream in his or her pocket? Ever?
