Week 5- Crazy Laws

In our own state of Illinois, a law requires a woman to call her male companion "master while on a date." This law is not invalid for married women. I can't believe that a law exists that does this. Maybe this would be okay hundreds of years ago, but I think this law needs an update!


This law is just plain weird. In Maryland, it is illegal to take a lion to the movies. Why would anyone even have access to a lion in the first place and why would they take it to a movie of all places???


In Carmel, New York, a man cannot be seen in public wearing pants and a jacket that don't match. Okay, first of all, the man could be colorblind. Second of all, who cares??


In Youngstown, Ohio, it is illegal to run out gas. What happens if you are in a traffic jam or a road is closed so you have to take the scenic route and you run out of gas? Can they really fine you for something as innocent as that??

These laws make me laugh a lot! They are soooooooooooooo crazy!
