What was the dumbest law you have ever heard of?

SW-User
A ban on kinder eggs because of them being dangerous... in a country where gun violence is still a main cause for concern.
Law against riding bicycles in beach sand
@Twoinmanc: yep ... a law from the less hip of the hippie 70's ... it eclipses the turtle crossing, mandatory brick in the toilet and no dancing girls on Sunday laws ... at least those had a purpose!
@theoneyouwerewarnedabout:
Nice bike!

This one's not the dumbest, but it's up there---and it's fairly [b]new:[/b]

"If you want to be naked in public then you have to get a parade permit. This is thanks to a controversial nudity ban that went into effect on February 1, 2013. Prior to that you could be naked in public if you so desired but you were required to sit on a towel if you were sitting on a public seat or bench."

I don't personally want to. But it's still funny.
Sodomy laws in the South that prohibited sex between consenting adults of the same gender at a time when sex with an animal was perfectly legal.

@PetiteChica and @Twoinmanc: I had to confirm this one and it is actually illegal in every US state and the only legal position [for the US] is the missionary position.
