While we were traveling in Western Australia (AKA the WA), we noticed that some license plates signified that the owner was a West Coast Eagles fan.
We can not say the name of the Football team in Fremantle Western Australia because that team has been embargoed from using the word by a pants manufacturer company in the USA.
How much revenue could be raised in California if football fans could pay extra for a license plate with their favorite pro-football team's logo on it? Would there be any similar additional "found money" funds available if a similar option was offered to baseball fans? To basketball fans? How feasible would that option be for fans of college football teams?
Are regional license plates in a huge diverse state such as California a good idea?
Obviously there would be some folks in Berkeley CA who would be willing to pay extra to have a Cal logo on their license plate but would there be enough to make it an economically feasible option?
According to an urban legend, years ago when one California town was given the three letter combination of "CBS," broadcasting personnel from all over the state flocked to that city to buy a new car which would get one of the prized letter prefixes.
While traveling in the WA, we were told that the "KBC" letters combination indicated that the car's owner was a resident of the Kalgoorlie Boulder City area.
Recently there was a news story in Northern California about a woman hockey fan who gave a whack in the head to a person in the row in front of her. Unfortunately the victim was a young girl recovering from recent brain surgery for cancer. The victim had to be rushed to the hospital. Did that story get much play from news media in (for example) Concordia Kansas?
