Very coincidental that this thread got bumped. I have wanted EYESYOU since I turned 16 (over a decade ago), but sadly it was taken. I actually saw the plates at HyVee on Saturday and waited for the owner. Gave them my number and asked them to notify me if they ever got rid of it.

I'm pretty sure I saw that one at the tailgate Saturday.

I had ISU plates until I moved to Arkansas. Now they hang on the wall of my apartment.

I used to see a vehicle regularly around Fayetteville that had ISU plates, but don't remember what they said and I haven't seen it since last spring now. I've also seen a vehicle around town a couple of times that kept their ISU vanity plate on the front and replaced the rear plate with their Arkansas plate. Even though this state only requires a rear plate, I'm pretty sure that's not entirely legal.

My optometrist is Dr. Daniel Koenig and he works at the McFarland by HyVee on the west side.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was him, he's a very cool dude and good eye doc.

I wish they would update the college plate designs. They are the only series to not be modified (other than the ISU and UNI logos when they were changed) since the 80's. Even the official state/county/city and firefighter plates have had a minor font change since 1997.

They probably won't update the college plates now though, since they introduced private college plates so recently.

While Tg this weekend we parked next to a car with ISU plates that read VICTIM. We were not sure what the meaning was...

My husband was so happy when we moved to Iowa from Nebraska because we could finally get ISU plates. My husband is a band alum so we have CFVMB97. ('97 being the last year he was in marching band)

Funny...Saturday we parked nose-to-nose with the plate CYKOSIS. Truck in the row across from us was 5GR8YRS. At the Tulsa game, I saw a Hawkeye plate with ISUNI on it. I was very confused by that plate.

Not sure mine would fit based on this! 4GRTYRS2SOSOYRS? 6NOUT? 2DUMB44?
