15 Idiotic Laws That Only Exist In America

10. Snowball Fights Are Illegal (Aspen, Colorado)

Snowball fights, nearly everybody has had one and oh what fun they are. But if you start chucking the white stuff in Aspen, Colorado, you'll be drawing the wrong kind of attention to yourself. While they always seem to start off fun, there is the potential for someone to get seriously hurt by a rogue snowball. Just like a someone could be hurt by a football, or a tennis ball, or a basketball, making this law absolutely no less idiotic. Some people just want to strip the fun out of everything, and it has to be said, Aspen's top brass have made a cracking effort here.. It's unclear as to whether this law renders the much deadlier iceball fight illegal, too. Such ambiguity has surely led to someone dashing baby icebergs around the town.
