Used to be made by convicts here, but pretty sure that's not the case anymore. John Hiatt has a great song called "Tennessee Plates" that touches on the topic.
LOL I heard it as a joke, "How did you count how many cows there were so fast?"
"Counted the teats, & divided by four."

In Illinois the plates are made by the developmently disabled. I heard on a news (Fox or MSNBC) that Illinois has issued more vanity plates than any other state, do not know how true that is.

Not to mention the temporary ones that are issued for a few months only.

Also in Illinois is one for the Wildlife Prairie Park west of Peoria; one for the Morton Pumpkin Festival; one for Veterans; one for Purple Heart winners; and one for the University of Illinois.
A friend of ours, who's also a police officer, said the cops hate these plates because it's hard to remember which are valid Illinois plates.
Maybe we ought to design a PIXIES PLATE. Valid in all states and countries; only the players change

Sorry, dadaist ... I missed seeing the Illinois site until after I'd posted my "Illinois additions" above.

Australia's Northern Territory has a number of personalised
plates.
Very cheap and every second car has a set.

If you want it I think you can get it on a plate here in Tennesse. Schools, Special Intrests, and the latest A Right To Life Plate.

N.H. has many,but my wife& my buddy have vanity plates.
My wife is a HUGE NASCAR fan.Hers is BOOGIDY!
My long time riding buddy,is nicknamed "Animal".His motorcycle
plate is ANML.
I,personaly,never liked vanity plates.It stems from my younger
"hell raising"days.I just thought that it would make you more
identifyable to the cops.
Now I don't care.It's nice to have the phone ring and awnser it not wondering what the cops want you for this time.
One of the benifits of NO alcohol.June15,2003 was 11yrs! Irish
P.S.One son-in law loves A.C.-D.C.His truck plate is Black n Black.
