Unnecessary Law of the Month

Here is May's unnecessary law of the month:

In Topeka, Kansas, it's illegal to serve wine in teacups.

What I want to know is what exactly happened in Topeka, Kansas tea shops that warranted passing this law.

I grew up in Wine Country in California...trust me...if there are no wine glasses to be had someone will bust out with a tea cup, a cereal bowl, or sometimes just the bottle itself. I wonder how crazy things were getting during "tea time" in Kansas before the law came out!!! Best Unnecessary Law, EVER!

I guess we will have to wait until you write your autobiography (or someone writes a tell-all book about you).
