Animals Bismarck, North Dakota

It is unlawful to ride a horse into a bar or saloon.

Status: Historical / Repealed

The Law Explained

When Bismarck was a bustling frontier town, cowboys wanting to show off or avoiding a walk in the mud would occasionally ride their horses right through saloon doors. The resulting damage to floorboards and the inevitable horse manure deeply upset local proprietors. A city ordinance had to be drafted explicitly telling riders to hitch their steeds outside.
