Goofy Laws in Hartford and Throughout Connecticut

The Hartford Courant posted some of Connecticut's weirdest laws and ordinances. Here are some of our favorites:

- Silly string is banned in Southington
- In Hartford, you are not allowed to walk on your hands while crossing the street. (Makes sense.)
- It is illegal to educate your dog in Hartford. (Your dog will pee on your carpet and there is nothing that you can do about it.)
- Want to kiss your wife on a Sunday in Hartford? Illegal!
- Don't even think twice about planting a tree in the street.
- Think you're eating a pickle? Does it bounce? It doesn't? Guess what, Connecticut says, 'That's no pickle!'
