The Law
Kalamazoo apparently had a severe problem with loud, off-key romantic gestures disrupting the peace. City leaders passed an ordinance forbidding citizens from serenading their lovers, framing it as a noise nuisance rather than an act of romance. Modern stereos and boomboxes have largely replaced the midnight acoustic guitar, but the spirit of the ban remains.
