Well I was surfing the internet tonight and came across an article which stated some crazy/odd laws for different states. Being that I am from Ohio, I of course, read the laws from the state of Ohio that I found to be odd/crazy. I will share a list of some of them with you, if you are interested in reading more you can go to google and do a search for odd or crazy state laws. Some of them are rather interesting..lol I hope you enjoy and if you know any crazy/odd laws that are in place in your area..please share.
Oh and first I will say, I don't know how true these laws are or if they are actually still in place..but rather funny, if not anything else.
In Cleveland Ohio women are forbidden from wearing patten leather shoes because it allows men to see a reflection of their underwear.
In Clinton county any person seen leaning against a public building could be subject to a fine.
In Columbus Ohio it is illegal to sell cornflakes on Sundays.
In Ohio it is illegal to run out of gas.
It is against the law to skate without first notifying the police.
It is illegal for more than 5 women to live in a house.
It is illegal to get a fish drunk.
It is illegal to catch mice without a hunting license.
In Paulding Ohio a policeman may bite a dog to quiet him.
The Ohio drivers education manual says that you must honk the horn each time you pass another driver.
In Toledo Ohio it is illegal to throw a snake at anyone.
I hope you enjoyed the list I put here. Thanks for taking the time to read this posting. =)

lol, I guess it is good for it to be illegal for a driver to be blindfolded while operating a motor vehicle. What is really funny is that most of the time we have a law is because someone actually did that once..that is nuts. Thanks for sharing these humorous laws with us. Have a great day!
