NO DANCING IN NEW YORK CITYThursday Feb 22, 2007

NEW YORK (AP) -- Should you find yourself in a bar in New York City, and the music playing makes you want to get up and dance, please resist the urge. A state court is upholding the city's Prohibition era law that bans social dancing in bars, restaurants and certain clubs.

Those who like to get up and boogie sued, arguing the 80-year-old law illegally infringes on their right of free expression. But the court says recreational dancing isn't a form of protection that's protected either by the state or U-S constitutions.
