It is illegal to walk drunk down the street without a sober chaperone.

Status: Historical / Repealed

The Law Explained

Rather than just arresting everyone for public intoxication, an old Tennessee statute suggested a surprisingly pragmatic solution: a heavily intoxicated person could legally walk home, provided they had a sober person walking alongside them to keep them out of traffic. It was a neighborly approach to handling drunken revelry before modern drunk driving laws took precedence.
