It's illegal in Georgia (US), to tie a giraffe to a lampost.

Some of ours I can remember off the top of my head:
Our federal law gives tougher penalties for ecological crimes committed on weekends.
In Pouso Alegre, there are fines for grammar mistakes committed outdoors.
If you break a car window to steal an object inside, it's a heavier crime than to break the car window to steal the car itself.
In Barra das Graças Municipality, the local government must build and maintain at least one UFO landing area at any time.

| Jesus, remind me not to go there!
I'm sure there's one about London cab drivers having to carry a bale of hay in their cab, to feed the horses.
And one that bus drivers can legally urinate by their offside front wheel.
Oh, and I'm sure I remember reading that if you shoot someone with a bow and arrow on a village green on a sunday, it's their fault for getting in the way (As village greens are still officially reserved for archery practice on Sundays).
