Every now and then, we come across some strange laws that are on the books in various states including our own.  Sometimes the laws are just outdated, it may have had a purpose at one time, or it is just ridiculous.

So I thought it might be fun to see what is still on the books in Missouri, and the craziest in other states.  We will start with the Show Me State:

2.  All single men (that would be me) between the ages of 21 and 50 must pay an annual tax of $1.  Not sure why.  Ladies, looks like you are in the clear.

Now for some strange ones in other states:

It is illegal to send a surprise pizza delivery to someone's house in Louisiana, or anything else that isn't a gift that they're expected to pay for. It is considered harassment.

Stink Bomb GIFs | Tenor

It is illegal to sell, dispose of, give away, or use Stink Bombs in Alabama.

Fortune Teller GIFs | Tenor

It's illegal to do any fortune telling in Baltimore, Maryland.

And finally, it is illegal to run out of gas in Youngstown, Ohio.  Is isn't a felony, but you could get a misdemeanor ticket.   Good to know.
