For more interesting, really dumb laws, visit www.dumblaws.com :)

For North Carolina, they mention some of the following laws:

Persons in possession of illegal substances must pay taxes on them. However, paying taxes on these items does not make them legal.

A three dollar tax must be paid on all white goods sold.

Organizations may not hold their meetings while the members present are in costume.

Bingo games may not last over 5 hours unless it is held at a fair.

It's against the law to sing off key.

If a man and a woman who aren't married go to a hotel/motel and register themselves as married then, according to state law, they are legally married.

The mere possession of a lottery ticket is illegal in North Carolina and may result in a $2,000 fine.



There are also quite a few other funny laws for various cities around us. Check it out, they can be quite amusing :)
