50 Famous Things Banned in the U.S According to Stacker

"America is a nation of laws—and some of those laws are just downright weird. It's illegal to wrestle bears in Alabama, for example. You can't trick-or-treat on Sunday in Delaware, you can't give rats as gifts in Montana, and in Indiana, you aren't allowed to shoot fish in a barrel. Some laws or bans, like those just mentioned, are comically odd to the point where you might wonder how legislators even had the time to focus on writing them in the first place. In many cases, bans make perfect sense and are enacted to promote public safety, enhance public health, protect the environment, and to keep individuals from inadvertently killing, maiming, poisoning, infecting, burning, or blowing up themselves or other people. Here's a look at 50 things and activities that are forbidden in America. Some of them are federal laws that apply to every state and citizen. Others are unique to a group of states, a single state, or even a local community." - stacker.com
