I have compiled my favorites below and have surmised that based on these laws, that the UCF Greek System is in severe and dire jeopardy, especially if men may not be seeing publicly in any kind of strapless gown.

Yes, I'm kidding. Or ... am I???

Am I missing something here? :confused:

I think ZTAngel and I will agree that you have to be a Golden Knight to fully understand just how close to home those laws hit...

They also have this law in Tampa. Remember when all the bikini-clad women set up hot dog stands along Tampa's streets back in the late 80's and early 90's?

If you've ever been to Key West you know this is definitely still in effect. Those birds are crazy! They could whoop my butt.

I remember when they imposed this law...I was in high school (or shortly thereafter, possibly freshman year in college). There was a lot of controversy about it, but the funny thing is the dancers were more pissed about it than anyone! They thought it was going to hurt their income.

adpiucf 05-27-2004 01:25 PM

That's right! In the 80's-90's, they had women hot dog vendors in thong bikinis to attract customers, right? Ew, those are some buns I could do without, thank you very much!

if my leg wasnt hurting so bad, i would have fallen out of my chair from laughing

The reason doors must open outwards is incase of a fire. That way you can just barrel through the door and not in a panick have to remember to open the door inward and risk being trampled on.

I think that law is everywhere in regards to school, arenas etc. Fire marshall enforces it.

The other laws are hysterical!

Thanks for the list.

If an elephant is left tied to a parking meter, the parking fee has to be paid just as it would for a vehicle.

This is my personal favourite.

Remind me not ride my elephant down to Florida. I don't want to have to pay for parking.

Here in Canada parking our elephants is free. But in the winter we must pay to park our dog sleds.

Here is one from Canada

It is illegal for clear or non-dark sodas to contain caffeine. (Repealed)

I believe this law is still on the books. I am checking.

ETA: I checked. It has not been repealed.

The stupid law to end all stupid laws
 
The first time I ever voted, there was a resolution to remove the "no interracial marriage" law. I am dead serious. And what's sad is that this was within the last five year. Granted, it hasn't really been enforced since maybe the 60s, but the fact that it was still on the books baffled me. Even worse, it didn't pass w/ a total landslide. It ended up being 65% for repealing and 35%against repealing it. Sick.

KillarneyRose 05-27-2004 03:30 PM

I wonder if breast-kissing is legal if it is someone else's wife?
