Watch how long you dance in Alabama. Your marathon dancing just might get you 30-90 days in the county jail. Also funny: This section is right after one prohibiting "maiming one's self to escape duty or to obtain alms."

That's funny. I wonder how many other states have the same law.

3:30 check out the comment in the previous post, i think she's taking a break.
Thanks, 3:56.
Hmm. So if I were to ask someone in Alabama to "dance with me all night long" and she agreed, even if we did not in fact dance that long, would that be considered criminal conspiracy? Since we agreed to do so something illegal?
Or what if I got tired after 5 minutes, but she continued dancing, and later sang a copyrighted lyric while doing so, would I still be accountable because of the fact that it was a conspiracy to dance or whatever?
