It is illegal to sleep on top of a refrigerator outdoors.

The Law

In Pittsburgh, local ordinances dictate that no one may sleep on top of a refrigerator sitting outside on a porch or lawn. This bizarre rule likely stemmed from the mid-20th century when large appliances were often abandoned in yards, becoming hazardous and attractive nuisances. The city decided that taking a nap on a discarded Frigidaire was both a safety risk and an eyesore.
