Um…I thought it was, “Step on a crack, break your momma’s back” not “…your back.”

Who wants to trip on a crack, anyway? Might as well retitle that as “No stepping on any cracks on the sidewalk.” Well, maybe that’s also a little cruel…. FINE!!! Take out the dang law from your lawyers books and STOP ARRESTING PEOPLE FOR AVOIDING TRIPPING ON CRACKS!!!!!!!!

Hi, I am from Alaska, born and raised, and have never heard of such a thing, as a child I frequently used to avoid the cracks to no punishment.
I am pretty sure someone just made this up ![]()
Some people have too much time on their hands
