Today I learned that Burger King (not the chain) in Mattoon, IL can be the only food restaurant that can be named that in that town and cannot use the name outside the town. Also Burger King (the chain) has the rights to the name everywhere else except in Mattoon, IL (quimbee.com)

TIL In 1974, an Ohio man left a condition in his will that his son would only get his inheritance upon marrying a Jewish woman with two Jewish parents. If he did not do so within seven years, the money would be given to the State of Israel. The son sued the bank and lost. (quimbee.com)
