Weird Nevada laws... Well, here I go. I'd credit my source, but the Admins wouldn't post it because it's a web adress from a Google search.

1) In Eureka: Men who have mustaches are forbidden from kissing women. 

2) In Las Vegas: It's against the law to pawn your dentures.

3) In Las Vegas: You can bet on any team, just not UNLV (University of Nevada at Las Vegas).

4) It's illegal to drive a camel on the highway. (I love that one)

5) In Reno: It's illegal to conceal a spray-painted shopping cart in your basement. (Rats! Got to put that shopping cart in the attic now.)

6) It's still "legal" to hang someone for shooting your dog on your property.

 

Well bye, I've got to go take my camel to get some exercise on the highway... Oh wait, I can't! Where am I supposed to walk my camel? I'll have to buy some place to do it... maybe I could pawn my dentures! Oh wait, I can't do that either. I could go to Vegas and bet on UNLV... can't do that either! I guess I'll just have to go hang the guy who just shot my dog. See y'all! (just kidding) But really, for those of you who don't know, they have camel races and cool stuff like that in Virginia City. Anywho, that was fun.

Haha!:D Yeah, the whale-hunting law is so strange!

Especially because the are no whales in Ohio (except

for maybe in the zoos), but it is an Ohio law, and I

have no idea why!Laughing
