Strange License Plates
On the way to work this morning, I saw a HAWAIIAN License Plate on a new Durango... What on earth is a dude from Hawaii doing in Minnesota, and why did he pay to have his car shipped over here? Why not just hold off on buying your car until you move? Or perhaps it was an unexpected move? Or perhaps he's rich and just wanted to amaze the f^ck out of some icebox Minnesotans?
For the past 6 months, I've been noticing a yellow Ford Excrape on the way to work. The color stands out like a sore thumb, no doubt, but that is not what is interesting - the dude has a Green Bay Packers license plate (evil Wisconsinite). And the rear one EXACTLY matches his cars color. I found this odd at first, and then I saw his front plate - it was the proper color and didn't match the car at all (shade was slightly off). So, is it legal to paint license plates???
Oh, and MN now has a quarter. I'm so proud!
Ne1 have similar strange license plate sightings?

Wait, so when I see a car with yellow plates, it means they're alcoholics or something?

They were Green Bay Packers plates - some fools pay extra for them. Yellow background with a big green G on 'em. Vanity plates.

Ya - VV or something. Had a two digit number on it. Didn't know they shipped your car - cool. I hope MN lets him keep the plates - quite a topic for discussions around the watercooler! |

I heard about a guy in Florida with a support manatee licence plate. His message was "EATUMM"  |

Hey no ripping on Wisconsinites. Especially from a state that advertises 10,000 lakes when Wisconsin has 15057.

I have seen every state, but Wyoming. Come to think of it, I have never meet anybody from Wyoming. Does Wyoming even exist?

I have been to wyoming, and it is pretty good. Obiviously yellowstone is beyond words beautiful. most of the rest of wyoming was kinda like south dakota, at least in the north east heading west. and also heading up from denver. I went into yellowstone from the north in montana and went up switchbacks called "bear tooth pass" I believe it is impassible for most of the year. INSANE you go from around 0 to 11,000+ feet up VERY QUICKLY, man I will never forget getting to the top and looking down into the valley that we entered from, and there was snow patches all over the place below our altitude and it was August. Man, what an experience.
