Can't do that in Utah either.
-It is illegal to detonate any nuclear weapon. You can have them, but you just can't detonate them-
Here's some drinking related ones:
-Alcohol may not be sold during an emergency-
-Individuals may not possess beer in containers larger than two liters unless they are a retailer-
(I guess 5.9's are out then
)
-You're not allowed to sell beverages containing more than 3.2% alcohol-
-It is illegal not to drink milk-
-It's legal for restaurants to serve wine with meals, but only if you ask for the wine list-
One non drink related, remember, Utah is quite landlocked
-It is considered an offense to hunt whales-
Above are State laws, here's some Salt Lake County ones:
-No one may walk down the street carrying a paper bag containing a violin-
-Auctions may not be advertised by hiring trombone players to play on the street-
I'm pretty sure you can't spit on the sidewalk either, maybe that one was voted out recently?

I think most areas have the "Illegal to spit on the sidewalk"<br><br>One reason I heard is they use to be worried about spreading TB. The other I guess would be because of a lot of tobacco chewers.
Re:Dumb Laws in Your State
Years ago I was sitting at a customs brokers office in Alberta Canada and they had some dumb laws from "up there" printed up. I wish I could remember all of them, but here are a couple that I do.<br>"A truck driver will not be admitted into town if he is wearing a pink jumpsuit and mauve cowboy boots" Fort Saint Johns B.C.<br>" It is illegal for a truck driver to sit at a red light and pick his nose" Calgary, Alberta<br>" It is illegal for a truck driver to use a jake brake while backing into a dock or over a police car. Conviction will result in losing your parking privlages for a month." Winipeg, Manitoba<br>I don't know if they are still on the books. I wish I could remember more.<br>Tom<br>
