Fox News posted a list of the weirdest law in all 50 states. Some are old laws that don't apply anymore, and the rest are rarely enforced. Here are a few of the strangest ones that are apparently still on the books!

Let's start with our very own Arizona! Better not interfere with a claw machine or 'crane game', that's a class 1 misdemeanor!

Here are some of the best around the rest of the country!

1. California: You can't eat frogs that died in a frog-jumping competition.

2. Colorado: No upholstery on outdoor furniture. The exception is if you're selling it in a yard sale.

3. Indiana: No catching fish with your bare hands, and no DYNAMITE either.

4. Kansas: Kids over 14 can't use playgrounds.

5. Kentucky: Reptiles can't be used in religious services.

6. Maine: No gambling at the airport.

7. Massachusetts: If you sing the national anthem in public, you have to sing the whole thing. No stopping halfway through, or you could be fined $100.

8. Michigan: A 1913 law made it illegal to be drunk on a train. But in Minnesota, being drunk in public anywhere ISN'T a crime.

9. Mississippi: No swearing in public if two or more people are around.

10. Missouri: You can't sell cars on Sundays.

11. New Hampshire: No collecting seaweed at night.

12. New Mexico: No dancing while wearing a sombrero.

13. Pennsylvania: No explosives at weddings. You can't fire a gun either.

14. South Carolina: It's illegal for a man to seduce a woman by promising to marry her if he doesn't mean it. You can get up to a year in jail for it.

15. South Dakota: You can't use fireworks to protect sunflowers from birds.

16. Tennessee: Unless you have a permit, you can't keep a skunk as a pet.

17. Utah: You can't buy beer in containers larger than two liters. So, no kegs.

18. Virginia: No hunting within 200 yards of a church on Sundays.

19. Washington: Shoe stores can't use X-ray machines to find a shoe that fits.

20. West Virginia: You can't use a ferret to help you hunt.
