Dumbest home game rule ever?

[Alchemist]

This doesn't rival some of the retarded rules earlier in the thread but I'll relate it anyway.

We're about midway into my buddy's home tournament. It's my first time playing there but he's hosted several before that. I'm in late position and pick up QQ. Naturally there are about 4-5 people to the flop. Flop is all rags and the SB on a short stack goes all in. Someone else calls so I raise all-in over the top to try and isolate (I think there was someone still to act behind me).

Host is at the table and tells me I can't do that. I look at him and tell him "I sure as hell can, why not?". He says "Well, when there's an all-in, we kind of like to turn the hands over and deal out the cards and see who wins." I tell him I don't want to go up against 3-4 opponents, just heads-up with the short stack but whatever...any other rules I should be aware of? So I end up just calling and fortunately my hand holds up. I'm not sure how we would have worked it out if one of the other hands won.
