Huskers beat Jayhawks in license plate wars

Kansas limits vanity tag to one owner Wichita and Kansas news Crime, courts, weather, education, politics, events Wichita Eagle: "Kansas limits vanity tag to one owner"

This was a curious little article. Evidently, in Kansas, a vanity tag can be duplicated as long as there is not a duplicate in the county for which it is registered, until now. According to the article, of 88,000 vanity tags in Kansas, 33,000 are duplicates. And in the land of the Jayhawks, guess what the favorite vanity tag is? HUSKERS. That's right, an homage to the newly minted 2009 Holiday Bowl champions who were only four points away from a 10-1 season this year.

Anyway, here are the rest of the top 10 duplicate vanity plates in Kansas which will have to come up with other clever ways to get their message across once the new law is put in place:

PLATE--(# of dups.)
HUSKERS--53
JAYHAWKS--43
GITRDON--38
CHIEFS--37
2FAST4U--36
SPOILED--35
SOONERS--34
BLESSED--34
MYTOY--33
REDNECK--32

  1. All it goes to show is that a lot of people don't have any taste...also demonstrated by the paucity of Mizzou license plates.

    Equally dismaying is that git-r-done is #3...sigh. Role model selection FAIL.
