Top 4 Dumbest Louisiana Laws You Didn’t Know Exist

Every state has their share of dumb laws. Most people don't even know that these laws exist! Louisiana is no exception. So check out the top 4 dumbest Louisiana laws that you didn't know exist.

"Fake" wrestling matches are prohibited.

Okay, children. Lesson time. Wrestling (as in WWE) is fake. Are the wrestlers really in danger sometimes? Sure. Yes, it does take an extreme amount of athleticism to do the things that these guys and gals do. And they tell some pretty interesting stories sometimes. But it's Entertainment. It's right there in WWE's name. World Wrestling Entertainment. Apparently, though, it is illegal in the state of Louisiana!

It is illegal to gargle in public places.

Why? Just why? You're telling me, if I want a minty fresh mouth, and I don't have time to use some mouthwash at home, I can't take it to the streets? I can't throw some mouthwash into my mouth, and start walking down the street gargling away? What is the meaning behind this? The amount of questions that arise from this one are tremendous! And I kinda want to try it...

Biting someone with your natural teeth is “simple assault,” while biting someone with your false teeth is “aggravated assault."

In Louisiana, the basic difference between simple assault and aggravated assault is, simple assault is assault without a deadly weapon, whereas aggravated assault is assault WITH a deadly weapon. So, if you've got fake chompers, just know you're living with some deadly weapons up in ya gums!

Rituals that involve the ingestion of blood, urine, or fecal matter are not allowed.

Wait. So it's okay to ingest blood, urine, or fecal matter...just don't do it in a ritualistic fashion. Gotcha. Why does this have to be a law? Which one of y'all was eating doo doo so much that this had to be put into a lawmakers hands, and he was forced to signed off on it? He probably had the thought of, "You know, ole Herbert really has been eating a lot of doo. I know it's not good for his old bones, so a law it shall be!" Anne Rice just settled her taste for blood by writing about it instead of actually doing it cause you know...it's against the law in New Orleans. Shouldn't this just be common sense?

These laws had to be written for a reason, right? Someone in Louisiana had to do these things, and it upset, grossed out, or just plain pissed off someone enough to make it law. These dumb laws were gathered from dumblaws.com. They have some more in there if you'd like to take a look.
