After catching this MMFALCN plate this week, I noticed I've gotten 5 Star Wars related plates from 3 states...

While going through the set to start adding categories (like sports, huskers, occupations, animals, etc), I noticed these could be their own category.

Another bit of trivia, my vanity plate collection is up to 641 plates from 13 states and Canada.  I linked them all by state on the set page.

Driving I 80 West of Omaha about 1/2 way to Lincoln on May 31, 2008 when traffic was at a stand still from an accident I saw this Texas plate proclaiming OMAHA

I saw one last night on a Red mustang, I can't remember what it was but it had "Huge Ego" written all over it.

I feel like Tebow should be one of the plates banned in Nebraska.. No true Nebraskan should ever love Tebow..

I was at Scheels in October and there was a car in the lot with plates that said SYNERGY.

I admit... I'm not much of an NHL fan... so this one had my scratching my head for a bit.

I guess Winnipeg is basically a straight shot up I-29 (albeit 600 miles).

It said in the paper today that some guy here in Nebraska has bought a plate that says COVFEFE :lol: On a side note I have wondered if maybe that's the nic name that Trump and his boys use behind closed doors for Rachel Madow. I have heard gay females referred to as FeFes before and she is on TV every night covering Trump like he was the second coming of Satan.

Anyone know JILL T? Visiting a new brewery, The Liquid Garage, https://theliquidgarage.com/ in New Port Richey, Florida and their bar was an assortment of license plates from everywhere. This one happened to be right in front of me.
