It is illegal to throw a bale of hay from a second-story window.

Status: Still Enforced / On the Books

The Law Explained

Back when Baltimore relied heavily on horse-drawn transport, the city was filled with multi-level stables. Careless stable hands often tossed heavy bales of hay out of upper windows, occasionally crushing unsuspecting pedestrians below. To curb these agricultural concussions, the city outlawed aerial hay bombardments entirely.
