How Ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude!!! Our newest little billboards are sending a mixed message...
After all the contests, studies and P.R. contracts concerning the design of license plates, 999 of them are funny at best, and crude at worst. Hopefully the Florida, Ohio and Michigan traveler trailing a FKD tag on I-95, will choose the former of the two.
When one of our friends asked my wife what she should do with her new FKD tag, Jenna didn't quite know what to tell her. Admittedly, I thought it was pretty funny. A few hours later I saw that two other friends posted on Facebook that they were issued a tag with the same prefix. I immediately realized that folks were noticing.
It's going to be interesting to see who puts the tag on their vehicles compared to those who request new ones. Either way, I'll be curious to see what the great minds in charge of tourism and business recruitment will do anything about the FKD tags. I'm sure they won't but one is never surprised when it comes to government decisions.
My bet is that we'll see the tags dot the walls of bars around the state, frat houses and watch South Carolinians rivet them to Jon-boats and trailers. A few of them may even fetch a few bucks on Ebay.
We all know that "Virginia is for Lovers" but this is another level!
