In Minnesota, A person may not cross state lines with a duck atop his head. Even better, Minnesota citizens may not enter Wisconsin with a chicken on their head. I cannot even begin to think why or how those became laws.
A Wisconsin law states that whenever two trains meet at an intersection of said tracks, neither shall proceed until the other has. HUH?
In Milwaukee, an old ordinance forbids parking for over two hours unless a horse is tied to the car. I'll have to remember that next time I'm downtown.
In LaCrosse, it is illegal to tie up your horse along Third Street (Now a major bar strip). I guess that's to prevent drunk riding.

| In my home town it is illegal to walk down the street with a ice cream cone in your back pocket. It is also illegal to fish from a boat that is being pulled behind a truck. |

In my hometown of Rockford, Illinois it is illegal to ride a dog through a city park.
(The law is still on the books, although written in the early 1900's.) |

Arizona
These are very much still in law here and there have been fines and prison terms for them!
Hunting camels is prohibited.-The US Army once experimented with camels in the Arizona desert, and eventually gave up. The remaining camels were set free, and are now protected.
There is a possible 25 years in prison for cutting down a cactus.The Saguaro cactus, treasured by Arizonians, has been endangered by those who find pleasure in shooting or cutting down cacti. Thus, a law was passed to protect the cactus.
It is unlawful to refuse a person a glass of water. In the summer-time, with temperatures reaching topping 120 degrees,
often people will need water, but may not have the
money to pay for it (mainly applies to homeless).
Hence, the law. It is very much in effect today, with
businesses being reported (and heavily fined) who
refuse to supply water to those who ask for it.
Convenience stores are the primary businesses who uphold
this law.
Laws which are, ummmm, yeah,,,
[u]You may not have more than two dildos in a house.
When being attacked by a criminal or burglar, you may only protect yourself with the same weapon that the other person posseses
It is illegal to manufacture imitation cocaine
