Here's a fun law from Wisconsin, albeit one not enforced. Since 1895 (if I recall right) a standing law in the state makes it illegal to sell margarine. The Oleomargarine Law was in effect until 1967 until a SCOTUS ruling declared it violated the Commerce Clause. However, the law was never technically repealed and remains on the books to this day.
@@Lady_of_Ishpeming Okay, while I sympathize with you, every oil we consume is one or two atoms away from being turned into a plastic polymer. Animal fats, olive oil, rapeseed oil, canola oil (a primary ingredient in most margarine). It's not exactly the same as comparing Velveeta to Plastique Explosive (and yes you can turn Velveeta "cheese" into Plastique Explosive rather easily, or napalm).
@@Johnboy33545I don't disagree, but it's produced in effectively the same way as all margarine is today. I'm not pro-margarine, just pointing out some basic facts.
You are close but not totally correct. The sale of YELLOW margarine was illegal but white has always been allowed. Also, Gov. Warren Knowles signed the bill repealing Wisconsin's 72-year-old ban on the sale of colored oleomargarine in 1967. Even now, restaurants are not allowed to put margarine on the table, it has to be specifically ordered by the customer (which might be where your confusion is coming from). I grew up in the days of the oleo runs to Illinois. We were a butter family so never participated but every Christmas Mom would buy a bag of margarine at the store for some of the baking and we kids got to pop the dye button and knead the color into it. We never had margarine for everyday eating.
The term “idiot” was an accepted legal classification for a long time. In the Census forms of 1870, people were asked to check a box for each household resident if the person were “blind, deaf, insane or idiotic.”
In the 90s in Japan they made driving in platform shoes illegal because people's feet wouldn't stay on the pedals or they'd hit the wrong pedal. (At that time there was a craze for platforms of 4-8 inches.)
The Nebraska marriage law might involve blood tests. They used to have them here in Alabama, and you had to go to the health department to get a blood test for syphilis and when it came back negative, you took your results to the courthouse and get a marriage license. Then you just needed to find a minister and a witness.
By 1980 34 states still required a blood test. Of these 34, 19 states repealed their law in the 1980s, 7 repealed in the 1990s, and 7 more repealed between 2000 and 2008, Mississippi in 2009, and the last holdout was Montana which repealed the requirement in 2019.
Winnie the Pooh is also illegal in CHINA. Much of the Population began comparing China's dictator to Winnie the Pooh(for what ever reason). Now Winnie the Pooh is banned in China. 2:35
When the 'idiot' law was written, the term was not just an insult but an actual identifier of people with the most severe mental disabilities. To be specific, there was a scale that was based on IQ scores: 25 and below were idiots, 25-50 were imbeciles, and 25-75 were morons. They were not considered just interchangeable words for anybody you hapen to think is stupid. The purpose behind the law was probably because they believed that people with such a low IQ wouldn't be capable of understanding the issues at hand and would just be drawing doodles. It has not aged well.
Just a funny story about surprise pizza... A few years ago I get a knock at my door and it's a delivery guy with a bunch of pizza, French fries and a salad. I said I think you have the wrong house. He asked about the address and it was my house. We'll not ordering anything I started to ask questions, mainly is it paid for or do I owe you money. The bill was about $50 so not terrible. He then asked me about a person. Turns out that my then 6 year old daughter and her 8 year old friend went and ordered pizza online! They were shocked it worked and the pizza guy was very apologetic and was will to take it back. Instead we had a good laugh, dinner and they haven't ordered anything since.
In SC the pinball machine used to be a poker machine., no flippers. I remember some of them when I was very young. They were phasing out. In SC, if you check into a hotel as Mr. and Mrs. and not married, you are now by common law. If your girlfriend gets mail at her bf place as Mrs. , you are common law married. Also, you can't spit on the side walk, but it does not mention any other bodily functions.
Laws and food: apparently in the U.S. Heinz ketchup has 20% sugar. However, here in Canada, because our laws regarding food content are much more strict, Heinz ketchup has only 4% sugar. The sweetness is derived from the very ripe tomatoes used in making it.
Lenny (holding up a glass of beer): "So long dental plan!" Lenny (replaying in Homer's head): "Dental plan!" Marge: (repeated immediately after also in Homer's head): "Lisa needs braces!" Sorry I just had to 😛
In Joplin, MO it is illegal for ugly people to walk down Main Street on Saturday night. Circuses used to have Winter quarters there and it was a big mining area. Circa 1900. Side show workers would get in brawls with miners on Saturdays so the city council banned ugly people (side show workers) from being on Main Street on Saturday when the miners got paid and got drunk.
In Sweden you have to walk your dog at least every 6 hours. Nighttime when you are sleeping is an exception though. If you have caged animals like birds and rabbits, they have to be allowed free time outside the cage at least a few hours a day. If you don’t follow the law, nobody will really find out or care but it’s meant to keep your pets happy. Don’t buy a pet if you don’t want it to be happy. My rabbit don’t have a cage at all. She’s free roaming in the apartment and has her own pillow she sleeps on in my bed.
Also, on a side note, if the law about idiots not being allowed to vote was a federal national law, 95% of Americans would lose voting rights. But in reality, the way the us government is set up, the people's vote doesn't really count. It's only an "advisory vote" or recommendation. But in reality, the electoral college, which is directly chosen by the Senate without elections or consent from the public, can pick whoever they want even if they receive no public votes or aren't even running for office. (They're lying if they say laws require them to vote for who the public chose) this is not true. They just say that, so nobody notices they don't really get a vote... no such laws actually exist, or if so, the senate ignores them because we can't do anything about it to punish them... The reason I say 95% of Americans are idiots is because they don't know how government actually works so shouldn't get to decide whos part of it, thats how corrupt or incompetent people are put in power, because dumb people vote for them then wonder why they are incompetent at their position and wonder why they can't trust the government. If you think the president affects prices, you're one of those people. Prices are set by private companies, and tariffs/ imports and exports are by Congress. The President has nothing to do with it. He legally can't set prices. If so, everything would be cheaper than our wages instead of higher. Also, most people don't know how to drive correctly, so why should they get to vote if they can't even drive without breaking the law. Driving isn't very hard... (im not saying certain people shouldn't get to vote im only explaining that most people would fall under the "idiot" category today if it were a federal law) but i do believe you should take a voter education class or political science class before you can vote because Hitler was elected legally and fair and square because people were too dumb or uneducated to be able to vote responsibly.
So Winnie the Pooh is also banned in China because a group of people likened the leader to the character which made him very angry so he banned the character from the country!
I think the following "law" is still on the books here in Columbus, OH. It is illegal to eat Corn Flakes on Sundays. Not the entire state of Ohio, just Columbus.
Okay, Dear. Socks. I'd be in big trouble. I have tons of socks, however I don't wear them. I'm not comfortable with anything on my feet. I walk around barefoot or with flip flops on. When I have to wear socks and shoes, I can't wait to get home. Bra goes flying, shoes and socks off, pants flying, and I put on a tank and pair of shorts.
I worked in Gainesville Georgia at a chicken processing plant in 1977. The "no utensil" law bust be new since then but doesn't surprise me. I got picked up by local police 6 times in 4 months in 3 counties foe 3 different excuses. Never issued a ticket, arrested or charged. Just hassled. Great people, bitchy cops.
I have to be honest here. I honestly don’t know how many times a day my husband and I take our dog out for her constitutionals. She goes out almost every time she “asks”. She has gotten a little bit spoiled about it, but I really don’t care. The thing is that she has never had an accident in the house which is just wonderful for us. We love her so f-ing much that it’s not even funny because she’s our fur baby, end of story, no question. She is the best Baby Girl ever, and I don’t care what anyone has to say about it.
Alberta Canada has no rats. Seriously. The implement of the law preventing an invasive species of rat to protect their crops. Any outbreak is reported and dealt with immediately and it is illegal to keep them as pets. Look it up. Good law. Amazing story.
2 weird laws in my area (though I am not sure if they are still on the books): #1. Only non emergency vehicle legally allowed to drive through red lights, through stop signs and past road blocks, Mail vehicles. Why? The Mail Muse Go Through! #2. When a prisoner is release from prison, it is the law for them to be given a saddled horse, a gun, and 1 bullet, Why the gun and the bullet? In case the horse needs to be put down.
@@joeydepalmer4457 I can't do that though! I don't own a car so I can't go to the P.O. to pick things up. I'm totally dependent upon the carriers. My new one has been great! My house is way off the road, & I'm mobility challenged, so I can't get to it either. The old carrier would stuff it so full that when someone would get my mail for me, things would literally tear to pieces getting it out! She would put live plants in the box, metal box, knowing that it would likely not get picked up for days. At the end, she just refused to bring anything! Things I had ordered sat at the P.O. for over a month! I finally filed a complaint w/ USPS's Attorney General. THAT'S when things changed! My doctor filled out a hardship letter & now my mail gets brought to my front door. From what I've heard from other carriers, I wasn't the only one she messed with. One said she was "mean & hateful" & "lazy". I hate that she lost her job, but she wasn't DOING her job to start with!!
The pizza law is something we need here in my town. We have a neighbor who sends pizzas to his neighbors and they are hit with a bill to pay at the door. These pizza companies should take payment upfront, but they don’t. These poor neighbors and pizza delivery people, as well as the pizza companies are being used in this crazy guys harassment plans. He was finally arrested, but let go, after doing this for more than three years. He still harasses the neighborhood to this day.
It's illegal to cross from Minnesota to Wisconsin with a duck on your head. Minnesota you can't drive a red car on lake St. Or sleep naked.and you have to have your husband's permission to cut your hair.and out east your horse must have tail lights😅
When I got married 32 years ago, in order to get married your needed a marriage license and a blood test for both partners showing they were free of STDs. This was in California where I lived. I ended up getting married in Nevada (not because of this FYI) because we decided to do a quicker and cheaper wedding. They did not require a blood test.
. I lived in Florida for 27 years from 1974 until 2001. I forget the year but in the 1980's, They outlawed bumper stickers such as "Call 1-800-EAT-SHIT" for fear of corrupting little kids but, at the same time, it was perfectly legal to wear a "T" shirt, in public, saying, " BITE ME, BEAT ME, WHIP ME, FUCK ME." After that law was struck down on first amendment grounds, a man in Florida was stopped by a state cop for having a sticker on his pickup truck's back window that read, "I EAT ASS". The cop demanded that the guy scrape off the word "ASS" because the cop didn't want to have to explain to his kid, someday, what it meant. The guy refused and the cop arrested the guy for indecency. The charges were dropped, the guy got to keep his sticker intact and the cop got wrote up. If my kid asked what it meant, I would have told him that in the bible, another name for a donkey is "ass" and the guy must raise and eat donkey meat. The cop had better not get too close to that guy. The cop was the ASS and the guy might eat him.
This isn't a law, but I once had to get three different doctor's notes for my then job. 1. I could have something to drink at my register. 2. I could keep my rescue inhaler with me at all times (job wanted me to keep it in my locker upstairs.) 3. I could use the bathroom when I deemed it fit. I'm so glad I don't work there anymore.
There is a law on the books in Utah that states every business needs to have a place to tie a horse in front. I know, it's weird. And no, it's not enforced.
Are you serious? Three times is too many? I take my dog out way more times than that. I even make her go outside when she doesn't want to. Unless you've taught your dog how to use a toilet, you need to take it out regularly.
I remember hearing of a law in NSW, Australia that bans swimming between the hours 6am and 6pm, also the bather had to use a bathing wagon to get to the water.
It would be nice to know the actual thinking behind these laws... For example... In England, it's technically illegal to play football (soccer to our American friends) on Sundays BECAUSE it interferes with Archery practice...
If the Queen has you in her house she can expect you to be dressed properly(including socks). And yes the waters were hers too which not only kept the monarchy informed but protected the birds and fish too. Your reasoning is flawed.
In Spokane WA when you get out of jail you get a 20 $ gold piece, a mule and a Winchester rifle well at least you are supposed to ( I never got any of that. I would have named my mule charlie) You can't pack a water gun in deer park WA on sunday. if you need to transport your goldfish in Seattle you can't use the bus. You can't conceal a 6 ft weapon also in Seattle.
12:52 Maybe they should pass a law that ensures someone has an artificial limb or wheelchair even if they can’t afford it, rather than banning them from pawning/selling them? Or both if they don’t want them pawned
Hi, my favorite law from my state, Massachusetts. As the head of your household, you have to bring a loaded rifle or musket to curch on Sunday. This is to prevent Indian raids
in Ohio there is a weird one that is"Don't take my fish"Ohio law stipulates that fish legally confined in a net or other device become the property of the person who caught it. That means it's illegal for anyone else to take the fish without written permission. Every stolen fish is a separate offense.
In my state it is illegal to chuck your couch at your neighbor! You also aren’t allowed to take baths between Oct. and March. You either have to pick having a mustache or kissing. You can’t have both!!
In Australia & USA you needed a MAN running in front of a motorized carnage waving a RED flag, so horses could be held down in control. This was only abolished in the late 1980's.
In Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. It is against the law for anyone under the age of 18 years old to enter a donut shop. Back in the 80s when smoking was allowed everywhere, so it was outlawed for children under the age of 18 to enter a donut shop
I figured the Winnie the Pooh one would have been from North Korea, considering some have compared the character to the dictator. Or was that the President of China?
21. Queen of Fish (Not to be confused with Duke of Earl) Might be a safety issue thing. Imagine a mob of people running down the beach with knives hoping to find ambergris, wanting to get choice bones for apparel & maybe scrimshaw, etc. Many wouldn't take the chance of stealing from the king. Edit: Tempted to try to bounce a pickle from the jarful in the fridge, except I already know they're not great.
If I kiss a redhead in Reno...it's illegal because there's a statute there saying that bearded men cannot kiss any redheaded woman on the lips within the city limits...
People have been known to do all kinds of strange things to prank people. You might not mind receiving one pizza surprise (as long as it's not pineapple and anchovies) but people have been known to send 15-20 pizzas to the homes of people they're mad at, sometimes with gross toppings, and always to be paid for on arrival!
In my home state, Massachusetts, it is illegal to NOT carry your gun to church. The law stems from colonial days when the natives figured out that the entire settlement would gather every 7th day in one building and it would be a perfect time to attack. The law is still on the books despite being a state with some of the most restrictive gun laws.
I was told that an inmate being released from a Wisconsin penitentiary demanded a horse and rifle as it was his right according to another crazy Wisconsin law. He received his horse and rifle and rode off. As soon as he was off prison property he was promptly arrested for being in possession of a firearm as an individual out on parole.

Margarine.......one molecule away from plastic. I'll eat real butter anytime.
@@Lady_of_Ishpeming Okay, while I sympathize with you, every oil we consume is one or two atoms away from being turned into a plastic polymer. Animal fats, olive oil, rapeseed oil, canola oil (a primary ingredient in most margarine).

Oleomargarine is disgusting stuff that bares little resemblance to butter.

If that's true...then no Democrats should ever be voting there...😹😹😹
Now it's more socially acceptable to just call them Americans.
A strange, but reasonable, law in Florida is you can't drive in flip flops as they could get stuck under the pedals.
In the 90s in Japan they made driving in platform shoes illegal because people's feet wouldn't stay on the pedals or they'd hit the wrong pedal. (At that time there was a craze for platforms of 4-8 inches.)
No flip flops..... there's gonna be a lot of truck drivers upset about that law

I got married in Oklahoma 20 years ago and had to have the blood test. I honestly didn't understand why.
It was like that in Kentucky in the late 50s early 60s.

Az had that law thats why every one went to Vegas lol true 😮
Blood tests should still be required. Too many people lie about their health and diseases until after the vows

Strapless Shocker question: Are men's bathing suits considered strapless? No top at all shows a lot of shoulder.
The strapless ban was for men wearing women's clothing. So, no, it would not apply to a man in a man's bathing suit.
2 weird laws in my area (though I am not sure if they are still on the books): #1. Only non emergency vehicle legally allowed to drive through red lights, through stop signs and past road blocks, Mail vehicles. Why? The Mail Muse Go Through! #2. When a prisoner is release from prison, it is the law for them to be given a saddled horse, a gun, and 1 bullet, Why the gun and the bullet? In case the horse needs to be put down.
"The mail must get through!" Tell my carrier that! Oh, wait, you can't! She got herself fired for not bringing my mail to the house for over a month!!
@@RNMom424 we had no mail come to our door in years
@@joeydepalmer4457
I'm sorry to hear that, but in my case, this carrier simply REFUSED to deliver my mail.
@@RNMom424 we just walk down to the postal statin and get our mail and not give a damn about what mailmen feel
@@joeydepalmer4457 I can't do that though! I don't own a car so I can't go to the P.O. to pick things up. I'm totally dependent upon the carriers. My new one has been great! My house is way off the road, & I'm mobility challenged, so I can't get to it either. The old carrier would stuff it so full that when someone would get my mail for me, things would literally tear to pieces getting it out! She would put live plants in the box, metal box, knowing that it would likely not get picked up for days. At the end, she just refused to bring anything! Things I had ordered sat at the P.O. for over a month! I finally filed a complaint w/ USPS's Attorney General. THAT'S when things changed! My doctor filled out a hardship letter & now my mail gets brought to my front door. From what I've heard from other carriers, I wasn't the only one she messed with. One said she was "mean & hateful" & "lazy". I hate that she lost her job, but she wasn't DOING her job to start with!!
The pizza law is something we need here in my town. We have a neighbor who sends pizzas to his neighbors and they are hit with a bill to pay at the door. These pizza companies should take payment upfront, but they don’t. These poor neighbors and pizza delivery people, as well as the pizza companies are being used in this crazy guys harassment plans. He was finally arrested, but let go, after doing this for more than three years. He still harasses the neighborhood to this day.
Anyone remember Huckleberry Hound, Quick Draw McGraw? No pants.
It's illegal to cross from Minnesota to Wisconsin with a duck on your head. Minnesota you can't drive a red car on lake St. Or sleep naked.and you have to have your husband's permission to cut your hair.and out east your horse must have tail lights😅
In Marion, Ohio it's illegal to walk backwards while eating a donut.
What about a cronut?
When I got married 32 years ago, in order to get married your needed a marriage license and a blood test for both partners showing they were free of STDs. This was in California where I lived. I ended up getting married in Nevada (not because of this FYI) because we decided to do a quicker and cheaper wedding. They did not require a blood test.

I lived in Florida for 27 years from 1974 until 2001. I forget the year but in the 1980's, They outlawed bumper stickers such as "Call 1-800-EAT-SHIT" for fear of corrupting little kids but, at the same time, it was perfectly legal to wear a "T" shirt, in public, saying, " BITE ME, BEAT ME, WHIP ME, FUCK ME."
After that law was struck down on first amendment grounds, a man in Florida was stopped by a state cop for having a sticker on his pickup truck's back window that read, "I EAT ASS". The cop demanded that the guy scrape off the word "ASS" because the cop didn't want to have to explain to his kid, someday, what it meant. The guy refused and the cop arrested the guy for indecency. The charges were dropped, the guy got to keep his sticker intact and the cop got wrote up. If my kid asked what it meant, I would have told him that in the bible, another name for a donkey is "ass" and the guy must raise and eat donkey meat. The cop had better not get too close to that guy. The cop was the ASS and the guy might eat him.
This isn't a law, but I once had to get three different doctor's notes for my then job. 1. I could have something to drink at my register. 2. I could keep my rescue inhaler with me at all times (job wanted me to keep it in my locker upstairs.) 3. I could use the bathroom when I deemed it fit. I'm so glad I don't work there anymore.
Great video Mike and List 25 🌹🌹
Remember that Pinball used to be outlawed in many places due to it being seen as gambling. That will cause that 18+ age rule to make more sense.
Wear socks around a monarch? Would Elvis care if you were wearing socks?
Did you know that Happy Birthday is copyright. and cant be sung without dues...look it up
Yipee, it's MIKE!❤
There is a law on the books in Utah that states every business needs to have a place to tie a horse in front. I know, it's weird. And no, it's not enforced.
Are you serious? Three times is too many? I take my dog out way more times than that. I even make her go outside when she doesn't want to. Unless you've taught your dog how to use a toilet, you need to take it out regularly.
It is things like this that remind me what planet I am living on.
I remember hearing of a law in NSW, Australia that bans swimming between the hours 6am and 6pm, also the bather had to use a bathing wagon to get to the water.
It would be nice to know the actual thinking behind these laws...
For example... In England, it's technically illegal to play football (soccer to our American friends) on Sundays BECAUSE it interferes with Archery practice...
In Rockport Ma. It is illegal to skateboard anywhere within the town limits because of the sound they make.
In Detroit, MI it's illegal to sleep in your bathtub.
There was a law in Joliet Illinois that a woman could not try on more than 3 outfits in any visit to a store.
If the Queen has you in her house she can expect you to be dressed properly(including socks). And yes the waters were hers too which not only kept the monarchy informed but protected the birds and fish too. Your reasoning is flawed.
Here's one from Iowa that I got a verbal warning out of. public displays of affection while having facial hair is one of this state's bonkers laws.
🤣
I'd be in HUGE trouble then...
In Spokane WA when you get out of jail you get a 20 $ gold piece, a mule and a Winchester rifle well at least you are supposed to ( I never got any of that. I would have named my mule charlie)
You can't pack a water gun in deer park WA on sunday.
if you need to transport your goldfish in Seattle you can't use the bus.
You can't conceal a 6 ft weapon also in Seattle.
12:52 Maybe they should pass a law that ensures someone has an artificial limb or wheelchair even if they can’t afford it, rather than banning them from pawning/selling them? Or both if they don’t want them pawned
Im from Gainesville, Georgia. The chicken law is real, and technically, you can get fined up to $500. But they dont really enforce it, to be honest.😂😂
Hi, my favorite law from my state, Massachusetts. As the head of your household, you have to bring a loaded rifle or musket to curch on Sunday. This is to prevent Indian raids
in Ohio there is a weird one that is"Don't take my fish"Ohio law stipulates that fish legally confined in a net or other device become the property of the person who caught it. That means it's illegal for anyone else to take the fish without written permission. Every stolen fish is a separate offense.
In my state it is illegal to chuck your couch at your neighbor!
You also aren’t allowed to take baths between Oct. and March.
You either have to pick having a mustache or kissing. You can’t have both!!
I'll settle for kissing as soon as the wife shaves off her mustache. Can she keep,the beard?
In Australia & USA you needed a MAN running in front of a motorized carnage waving a RED flag, so horses could be held down in control. This was only abolished in the late 1980's.
Here in Birmingham UK it is illegal to have sex in a doorway of a church after sunset!
In Atlanta it is illegal to tie your giraffe to a pole
In Jackson Hole,Wyoming it is still against the law to spit on the sidewalk.
In Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. It is against the law for anyone under the age of 18 years old to enter a donut shop. Back in the 80s when smoking was allowed everywhere, so it was outlawed for children under the age of 18 to enter a donut shop
It is illegal to have lights on within 5 meters of the King's Palace in France
Crazy laws😂thanks Mike
You can't fish for whales on Sunday in Ohio. Also, men should be arrested for wearing any dress in public, not just strapless.
I'm sure super late to say this like I always am. But I'm so happy that list25 is back! Great to see you Mike.
Since 1345, It is against the law to take a rabid bear on an London underground
Hello Mike.
I figured the Winnie the Pooh one would have been from North Korea, considering some have compared the character to the dictator. Or was that the President of China?
21. Queen of Fish (Not to be confused with Duke of Earl)
Might be a safety issue thing. Imagine a mob of people running down the beach with knives hoping to find ambergris, wanting to get choice bones for apparel & maybe scrimshaw, etc.
Many wouldn't take the chance of stealing from the king.
Edit: Tempted to try to bounce a pickle from the jarful in the fridge, except I already know they're not great.
Its illegal to spit on a sidewalk
If I kiss a redhead in Reno...it's illegal because there's a statute there saying that bearded men cannot kiss any redheaded woman on the lips within the city limits...
Interesting video as always! ❤
People have been known to do all kinds of strange things to prank people. You might not mind receiving one pizza surprise (as long as it's not pineapple and anchovies) but people have been known to send 15-20 pizzas to the homes of people they're mad at, sometimes with gross toppings, and always to be paid for on arrival!
In my home state, Massachusetts, it is illegal to NOT carry your gun to church. The law stems from colonial days when the natives figured out that the entire settlement would gather every 7th day in one building and it would be a perfect time to attack. The law is still on the books despite being a state with some of the most restrictive gun laws.
That's my kind of gun law.
Thats funny.
It's time to update these laws . 😊
I was told that an inmate being released from a Wisconsin penitentiary demanded a horse and rifle as it was his right according to another crazy Wisconsin law. He received his horse and rifle and rode off. As soon as he was off prison property he was promptly arrested for being in possession of a firearm as an individual out on parole.
It's against the law to walk backwards in downtown Oklahoma city while eating a hamburger.
In my city it says you must have your sidewalk rolled up and brought in by 10pm. A hold over from when they were wood
what the heck these laws are so outrageous like who banns winnie the pooh
I live in Gainesville GA and the chicken law is good to know
