The Law

In Ridley Park, it is reportedly a violation of local ordinances to consume peanuts while walking backwards in front of a public venue. While it sounds like a surreal fever dream, such oddly specific laws were usually enacted to target one specific town nuisance from the early 1900s, likely a street performer or a vagrant. Whatever peanut-juggling act caused the uproar has been entirely forgotten.
