You havent seen dumb laws until you've been to Pennsylvania, ah, home sweet home...:
O Any motorist who sights a team of horses coming toward him must pull well off the road, cover his car with a blanket or canvas that blends with the countryside, and let the horses pass. If the horses appear skittish, the motorist must take his car apart, piece by piece, and hide it under the nearest bushes.
O You may not sing in the bathtub.
O Dynamite is not to be used to catch fish. (Darn.)
O It it illegal to sleep on top of a refrigerator outdoors.
O It is illegal to have over 16 women live in a house together because that constitutes a brothel. However up to 120 men can live together, without breaking the law.
O It is contrary to Pennsylvania law to discharge a gun, cannon, revolver or other explosive weapon at a wedding.
Of course though, you could just go to the <a href='http://www.dumblaws.com' target='_blank'>Dumb Laws</a> website, too.
