Is this for real?

[TPK]

Ive been reading a few posts, and apparently its illegal to host a super-bowl party while watching the game on a TV larger than 55 inches...

And if Im reading that statute correctly, I guess its also illegal to have a 5.1 dolby setup too.....

Is this for real???  Or is this just an internet hoax???

17 USC 109(5)(B)(i)(II)

if the performance or display is by audiovisual means, any visual portion of the performance or display is communicated by means of a total of not more than 4 audiovisual devices, of which not more than 1 audiovisual device is located in any 1 room, and no such audiovisual device has a diagonal screen size greater than 55 inches, and any audio portion of the performance or display is communicated by means of a total of not more than 6 loudspeakers, of which not more than 4 loudspeakers are located in any 1 room or adjoining outdoor space

I think that only applies if you are charging for refreshments or entrance.  I don't think it would be enforceable otherwise....

I am not a Lawyer nor do I portray one on Television, SD or HD.:bang:
