Custom License Plates

I'm going to say it now...the "xxxx4CY" or "xxx4ISU" is tired. Also, do something pro-Iowa State, not anti-Iowa. I've seen some anti-Iowa State phrases on Schmuckeye plates, and my thought is "Shouldn't you be worrying more about beating Northwestern?"

Were you involved in an activity/club while in school? You can try to incorporate that. (Pretty sure WLCHAVE would not be the BEST plate....or perhaps IS the best plate) See if any variation of word abbreviations from the fight song are available. FRVRTRU or EVRYYRD. Remember, if you have something with an S you want that's not available, you can always use the number 5 to represent the S.

wow! Great advice. Great thread to the OP too.

I need to come up with something as well. Any help would be good.

I like hockey. I liked Topshelf but my wife thinks people will think of liqueur and not "where momma keeps the cookie jar."

I like FDAHWKS -- not sure you could get away with that one

Was going to try to slip "UofIBFD" past them as my plates but I think they wouldn't let me... I like the "ALL IN" plate idea though...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought ALL IN belonged to CPR?

'Course, ALL IN with your graduating year might work.

...are taken. Since my plates are ISU and I have a huge window sticker I didn't feel the need to go pro-ISU with the letters, too. I think people can figure it out. My plate is music-related and my wife's is her nickname and grad year.
