Men’s Night Court, which began in 1907, still takes place today (though no longer quarantined by gender), and has even come to attract tourists. At the time this article was written, women attended a separate night court.

A number of larger cities institute nighttime court sessions to mitigate crowding. Manhattan’s night court deals with around 70-90 arrests each night between the hours of 5 pm and 1 am.

It’s also been a popular meme for comedy series.

The unwritten law of fashion, however, stated that straw hat season ended on September 15th each year. Traditionally, those who disregarded the deadline were fair game for hat snatchings.

A group of children decided to start the tradition early in 1922, ripping straw hats off of men on September 13th, which led to a full on riot that brought out mobs of thousands and provoked violence and even fires.

And who could forget Kanye’s remarks to Ryan Seacrest after being asked what he thought of Michelle’s cover…

There’s no way Kim Kardashian shouldn’t be on the cover of Vogue. She’s like the most intriguing woman right now. She’s got Barbara Walters calling her like everyday. And collectively, we’re the most influential with clothing. No one is looking at what [President Barack Obama] is wearing. Michelle Obama cannot Instagram a pic like what my girl Instagrammed the other day.

Guess we’ll find out which is the best seller after all. It’s worth noting that Beyoncé outsold the FLOTUS by 60,000 copies.

Much ado about nothing?

The premise of this whole argument begs: what qualifications should a cover girl have exactly? One could certainly argue that Kate Upton has done little more than parade her breasts around magazines. Is she also undeserving?
