Keystone Newsroom recently published an article titled “No Singing in the Bathtub? A Look at Pennsylvania’s Weirdest Laws”.

The article details various “random and obscure regulations” native to Pennsylvania municipalities, including restrictions on purchasing cars on Sundays, fortune telling, children’s bedrooms’ distances to a bathroom, catching fish with your bare hands, bartering infants, riding boats on highways, discharging cannons during weddings, and yes, singing in bathtubs.
