My college roommate got a

ticket for riding his unicycle on the sidewalk in New York City. It's funny because the NYC law clearly states that bicycle operation on sidewalks is prohibited. It also defines a bicycle in case you are unsure of what a bicycle is: "(1) The term "bicycle" shall mean a two or three wheeled device upon which a person or persons may ride, propelled by human power through a belt, a chain or gears, with such wheels in a tandem or tricycle." Yep, that was pulled right from their website. I'm glad the officer was good at counting the wheels on the unicycle.
