The Law
Taking religious services very seriously, an archaic state law supposedly forbade anyone from wearing a fake mustache to a church service if it caused unseemly laughter. The legislation was aimed at preventing deliberate disruptions of solemn religious gatherings by local pranksters. Today, you are free to wear whatever facial hair you please.
