I'm just going to list a few of the more bizarre ones I know from the United States.
States first:
Maine and South Carolina require all adult males to be armed at church in case of Indian attacks.
Oklahoma- Whale hunting is illegal. For those of you who aren't Americans and don't know the American states very well, look up Oklahoma on a map and you'll understand.
Alabama- Women, by law, will keep all property they owned before marriage in the case of a divorce. The same does not apply to men. Isn't this how most divorces work anyway? Alabama is just being up front about it.
Michigan- A wife's hair legally belongs to her husband, and she cannot get it cut without his permission. Payback for the Alabama law?
Virginia- It is illegal to tickle women. Sorry tickle fans.
Cities next:
Memphis- It is illegal for frogs to croak after 11 p.m. Nice to see Memphis cracking down on those criminals.
Cleveland- A hunting license is required to catch mice.
Atlanta- It's illegal to tie a giraffe to a telephone pole.
Seattle- It's illegal to carry a concealed weapon that's longer than 6 feet. I think you've left "concealed' territory with something that long.
