I have no idea if this is true or not but some of these are hysterical. Every state supposedly has a law that makes NO sense whatsoever. My favorite....it is illegal to sleep outside on top of a refrigerator in Pennsylvania. Check this out....

If you tie an elephant to a parking meter, you must pay the same parking fee as you would for a vehicle.

So that's where those tickets came from...

Tito, I think you've got a good defense right there for making a mess of aisle five at Stop 'N' Shop. Just tell them you're quality control.

I like the KY people have to take a shower once a year... Nebraska is funny too, excise police bust them because they dont have any soup brewing when they sell beer..

Oh, and thanks indiana for clarifying that the value of "pi" is indeed 4, not 3.141592654

Any women who come visit me, be warned: there's a law on the books in my little town requiring all women to get a permit to wear cosmetics. :chuckle:

It’s against the law to wash or scrub a sink, no matter how dirty it is (Baltimore).
This explains a lot.

My sister's husband (still in law school not yet lawyer) says yes. You can sue for anything you want, but it doesn't mean you'll win.

As someone who's also still in law school, I'd tell him to be careful about advice like that, if that's the entirety of the advice. There's more at risk in a lawsuit than losing - if the Court feels that the case is being used merely to cause a nuisance, both the plaintiff (and his or her lawyer, if one who'd take the case could be found) can face monetary sanctions.
