It's illegal to eat fried chicken with a fork in Gainesville, La The town made it officially verboten in 1961 in an effort to establish their cred as the poultry capital of the world. In 2009, a 91-year-old woman, who was visiting for her birthday, was  "arrested" as a practical joke  for breaking the law. Local law enforcement sentenced her "to come back to Gainesville often and ... eat lots of Gainesville chicken."  ...With her fingers, of course. originally posted on  https://www.distractify.com/p/ridiculous-laws Feel Free to comment and share with your friends!

Idaho is the only state to have an  active ban on cannibalism . Technically not a crime in the rest of the nation, cannibalism is defined as the “ nonconsensual consumption ” of another human—meaning, we guess, if you can get your buddy’s permission to eat his tenderloin, the feds can’t stop you.

Visitors beware: it is strictly prohibited to pronounce “Arkansas” incorrectly. Per the state Code,  the only acceptable pronunciation  is “in three (3) syllables, with the final ‘s’ silent, the ‘a’ in each syllable with the Italian sound, and the accent on the first and last syllables.” So keep your Arkan-sass to yourself—and while you’re at it, make sure you’re  pronouncing these common food words correctly .

Did you know in Texas, you don't have to be present at your own wedding. Texas has something called a  proxy marriage , which allows one or both parties to be absent from the ceremony. This is only legal in four states — Texas, Montana, Kansas, and Colorado, and is most often used in the case of military deployment or when one party is imprisoned. Basically, someone stands in for the party or parties who cannot attend, provided there is a notarized and signed affidavit that the absent party cannot be there and that the person in their stead is authorized to act on their behalf.
