The bizarre laws in Arkansas are mispronouncing the state of Arkansas name, illegal to keep an alligator in the bathtub, illegal to walk a cow down main street in Little Rock after 1:00 PM, Illegal to honk a car horn after 9:00 PM in Little Rock AR, Illegal to flirt on the streets of Little Rock, illegal to hunt camels in Arkansas and teachers that had a bob haircut were eligible for a raise.

Although these laws are not really enforced, except for the car horn honking in Little Rock is often enforced due to city ordinance.

It's technically illegal for someone to mispronounce the name Arkansas, although no penalty is specified and you won't actually get into trouble for mispronouncing the Arkansas name, even if you did so in front of a cop.

In Arkansas, keeping an alligator in a bathtub is prohibited and illegal.

It's also illegal to walk a cow down Main Street in Little Rock Arkansas, after 1:00 PM on Sundays.

In Little Rock, Arkansas it's illegal for anyone to honk a car horn after 9:00 PM when near any location that sells sandwiches or cold drinks.

Opening flirting on the streets of Little Rock, Arkansas is against the law.

In Arkansas it's also illegal to hunt camels.

In Arkansas, men cannot beat their wives, but only once per month.

In the city of Fayetteville, Arkansas, it's also illegal to kill ANY living creature.

And historically in Arkansas, teachers that got a bob haircut were not eligible for a raise.

Most of these laws are outdated and no longer apply or enforced, but they are mainly weird and bizarre laws.

Other states have old and outdated laws as well, which are also funny and no longer apply or are enforced.
