#18 Wisconsin – State Prisons Are Required to Serve 100% Real Butter to Inmates

Is that really something state government should be concerned with? Unless there’s a way to dig tunnels with margarine, this law was put in place solely to improve criminals’ diets. Meanwhile, more then half of all public schools nationwide don’t serve real butter with school lunches.

#17 Minnesota – Trying to Catch a Greasy Pig is Illegal

Any game or contest that involves catching an oiled up pig is strictly prohibited. You have to wonder how widespread the problem was, especially after the fine was raised to $1000 in 1992. Animal rights are a worthy cause but this law seems to be more about combating human stupidity then fighting livestock abuse.
