Don't put a couch on your porch in Boulder

[Baja_Brewer]

So this evening I was enjoying a few after giving up studying for finals for the evening, and I started looking up odd laws in different states. I'm posting this as a warning to certain HBT members (you know who you are); don't move to Boulder, CO, and expect to carry on with your current lifestyle.

On a completely unrelated note, I need to re-upgrade to premium. It's so much harder to find your last post without a picture of a giant man eating a giant hamburger next to your name.

Also, keep your junk to yourself in Vail

Wow... I am SO going to prison....

While having sex, you must stay in the missionary position and have the shades pulled.

Everyone,

Find out if there are any dumb laws in your community!!

Here is mine:

Lubbock County
It is illegal to drive within an arm’s length of alcohol – including alcohol in someone else’s blood stream.

I am still not sure if I understand this one SO, we should NOT have designated drivers in Lubbock???

I give you the original (and epic) porch couch thread: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f45/code-enforcement-52640/

"Sofa or die!"

From Rehobeth Beach Delaware

Six-year-old girls may not run around without being fully clothed.

But 18 year olds are ok??

Alcohol may not be served in nightclubs if dancing is occurring on the premises at the same time.

 

[MeatyPortion]

In Wisconsin: Whenever two trains meet at an intersection of said tracks, neither shall proceed until the other has.

 

[GilaMinumBeer]

Can make wine or cider in Oklahoma.

But not beer.

 

[MarkSheffield]

Having lived there, this law made a big difference in keeping sections of the old town from burning down after CU/CSU football game every year. Seems like a weird law, but I guess you just gotta be there

In PA

Any motorist driving along a country road at night must stop every mile and send up a rocket signal, wait 10 minutes for the road to be cleared of livestock, and continue.

I think I would get arrested for doing that

another jem from Danville PA

All fire hydrants must be checked one hour before all fires.

I guess that responsibility relies with the arsonist

Man, speaking from experience this is such a pain in the ass. When I am coming back from Harrisburg or Lancaster I can barely fit enough rockets in my trunk. Then I have to make sure my lighter is working or else I have to use the car lighter. Don't get me started on trying to light rocket fuses with car lighters.

In Kansas "Pedestrians crossing the highways at night must wear tail lights."

 

[Bopper]

In Wisconsin: Whenever two trains meet at an intersection of said tracks, neither shall proceed until the other has.

That would make for one long train ride!

 

[MultumInParvo]

Surprisingly the law is against college kids and not rednecks though. Who lights a couch on fire for fun? Silly college kids...

From California:

It is a misdemeanor to shoot at any kind of game from a moving vehicle, unless the target is a whale.

Does this explain a lot or what?

Be careful in Temple or Texarkana Texas

Temple
Cattle thieves may be hanged on the spot.
You can ride your horse in the saloon.
No one may ride a horse and buggy through the town square.
Texarkana
Owners of horses may not ride them at night without tail lights.

I would like to see someone mount a set of tail lights on the rear end of a horse

In order for a pickle to officially be considered a pickle, it must bounce.

Illinois-One may not pee in his neighbor’s mouth.

It is legal to protest naked in front of city hall as long as you are under seventeen years of age and have legal permits.
