Some of them are actual laws, others seem made up. But you never know...there are some really crazy laws on the books.

No person may have a "yard sale" in their front yard. In addition to this, no person shall have more than two yard sales a year.

Actually this is a law in many places around here to prevent people from running a yard sale 365 days per year.
