Week 28 Dumb Laws

There are some pretty stupid laws out there. One of the stupidest laws that I've see are one in Joliet, Illinois. "Town fathers, reflecting the pet peeve of hearing their town’s name mispronounced ‘Jolly-ETTE’ when all local folk know it’s pronounced ‘Joe-lee-ETTE’, made pronouncing it Jolly-ette a misdemeanor, punishable by a $5 fine."
Another dumb law is in Peoria, Illinois and it is "Basketball hoops may not be instaled on a driveway."
One more dumb law that I found was in Rock Island, Illinois "Citizens are taxed because it rains on their property."
This is just some of the most stupidest laws that I've found.
