Kentucky Sure Has Some Strange Laws – “Place of Entertainment”


Kentucky Sure Has Some Strange Laws – “Place of Entertainment”

      Kentucky has a statute requiring the licensing of a “place of entertainment,” a term that includes, inter alia, hotels and motels.  KRS § 231.010; OAG 39-383.  In connection with activities taking place at a “place of entertainment,” it is provided that the licensee shall not allow:
People to congregate there for immoral or unlawful purposes or to permit any man or woman who are not married to each other to occupy any cabin, cottage or secreted room or place from which the view of the public is excluded.  KRS § 231.110(2).
      Are they really expecting the clerk at the local Motel 6 to be requesting driver’s licenses and a copy of a marriage certificate?
