The Law Explained

A classic Portland city code makes it a punishable offense to wear roller skates into a public restroom. During the roller disco craze of the 1970s and 80s, people blading into tiled bathrooms caused massive slipping hazards and property damage. The city stepped in to demand that patrons must unlace their skates before using the facilities.
