Another few wacko laws from the US

It's great conversation material: just throw some weird laws from the United States on the table. Guaranteed to make you laugh out loud.

1. Hunting license for a mouse trap
That's how it is in California. But walking around with guns and shooting wild animals, well, that's treated a lot more lightly.

2. No fishing in your pajamas
That's prohibited by law in Chicago. I'm so curious about what situations led to these laws.

3. No walking on the street in a swimsuit if you weigh less than a hundred kilos
This law was – quite understandably – removed from the code in 1975 because even Americans found it a bit odd, but I’ll share it with you anyway. Here it is. It is forbidden for a woman to be in a swimsuit on the highway, unless she is accompanied by at least two police officers, or if she weighs less than 45 kilos or more than a hundred kilos. This does not explicitly apply to female horses, by the way.

4. Shooting a horse from a carriage
We understand that it is prohibited in Wyoming to shoot a horse. But if you do it from a carriage, then suddenly there’s nothing wrong with it.

5. No putting a hippopotamus on your roof
That's simply not allowed in Florida. Don't keep asking. Rules are rules.

6. All chickens pay attention
In Norfolk Virginia, chickens are not allowed to lay eggs before eight in the morning and after four in the afternoon. Just so you know, little chickens.

7. Soup and beer
Bartenders in Nebraska are not allowed to sell beer unless they are also making soup at that moment.

I would say: have a nice weekend everyone.
