1. My favorite real “how the hell did it get through the DMV” California tag said 4NICK8

2. I don’t remember what state the tags were from, but seeing them on I-95 in Virginia circa 1985 made me want to throw up. Two baby blue VW beetles driving in tandem, the first one’s tag was IYQ and the second was IYQ2.

   BLEEEAAARGH!

3. DICKOUT

   Should ONLY be for Harambe.

4. Can I put “ILLUSTR8R” on a license plate? 🤔
   One or two symbols too many…?

5. Funniest personalized plate I ever saw was on the car that parked across the street from me in Annandale VA.
   3M TA3.

   I figured it was a company vehicle for someone who worked for 3M and it took a few months and an oh shit moment.

   Then I saw it in my rear view mirror while backing out of my driveway.

   EAT ME

7. BIG TOYZ

   Yep.

8. I tried for ‘PHUHQJO’ (AZ)
   Verdict: No

9. I’ve seen a few really thoughtful ones. Pretty sure I saw IWEWEYQ. Saw 8APRIUS on big pickup.
   My CA plate was OH 42NA. Which means, well, several things. But I wanted O 42NA which was taken.

11. The absolute best & funniest vanity plate that I have ever seen was about 10 years ago in Kentucky. H2OUUP2. It took me a second or 10 to get it. What Are You Up To? Very clever, indeed! Especially for a fella from Kentucky! Kidding!! Still my personal favorite of all I have ever seen.

13. VA DMV rejected my request for LGB FJB. I can’t understand why?!?

14. Fuh-Q

    I explained that one in English class. It didn’t go over well. We used to play Tonk for silver in school and never learned anything. Or not much. But “TONK, you bitchass motherfucker!”

    Ms Butt (her real name) was hopping mad. I didn’t understand. “I only take a dollar out of five I win!”

    Now I have a 10 year old, myself.

15. When I learned that New Mexico offered one plate with eight letters, I had to get 1HARPAZ0.

16. My personalized plate back during the Obama years was
    BBYE BHO.

    I was at a political event and the Politico reporter noticed it and put it in his article. That’s good mileage out of that plate.
