By: Daniel Beasley

Thought the people from the South were full of Southern Hospitality? Take a look at some of these weird and strange laws only found in the Southeastern United States:

Florida
- Doors of all public buildings must open outwards.
- It is illegal to sell your children. No word on whether children can sell their parents...
- You can be fined for falling asleep under a hair dryer in a salon.
- Having relations (ahem) with a porcupine is illegal. Not to mention, painful.
- If an elephant is left tied to a parking meter, you must pay the parking fee. Guess that means youll have to ride the giraffe to work...

Georgia
- On second thought, dont ride that giraffe. In Atlanta you cannot tie a giraffe to a telephone pole or lamppost
- A man also cannot ride another mans back in Atlanta.
- In Columbus, it is illegal to for bars to hold a Ladies Night. It is also illegal for stores to sell cornflakes on Sunday. You also cant cut off a chickens head on Sunday. So what can you do in this town?

Alabama
