Adultery isn't a laughing matter, however the punishment might be extreme in Michigan.

Any person who shall commit adultery shall be guilty of a felony; and when the crime is committed between a married woman and a man who is unmarried, the man shall be guilty of adultery, and liable to the same punishment.

Those found guilty can face four years in prison and a $5,500 fine.

Now ya know, no more greased pig events in Minnesota. You can't steal seaweed at night in New Hampshire. Don't cheat on your spouse, it's not funny and you can land behind bars.
