Sagging Pants Law

(Mansfield, Louisiana) Effective September 15th, a new city ordinance requires that citizens keep their pants on -- completely.

Anyone caught wearing sagging pants who exposes his or her underwear will be subject to a fine of up to $150 plus court costs, or face up to 15 days in jail.

Alderman voted unanimously yesterday to enact the law.

The law makes it illegal to found in a "state of nudity, or partial nudity, or in any indecent exposure of his or her person or undergarments, or be guilty of any indecent or lewd behavior."

It appears that the law applies even to those going commando.
