Title: Vanity Plates!
Post by: MK M GOBL on January 05, 2017, 08:11:40 PM
Let's see them if you got them!

Mine have a bit of a story behind them, back in 1998 Wisconsin's Sesquicentennial the State offered a Special Plate for the celebration. Me and some buddies decided to all get vanity plates and all turkey related. My Make 'em Gobble "MK M GOBL" were my first choice and no one had. I got those plates and a couple of years later the NWTF was running a Vanity Plate Contest, well you can probably guess who won that one! :) I have the issue and award from the NWTF

I have seen a few others now using my MK M GOBL in a number of states and since that article was in the NTWF magazine. I have had the plate ever since and has been recognized by some people over the years.

Here are a few the buddies had

LMB HNGR
LNG BERD
SPR HNTR
WLD TRKY
OPN CZN
CM STRUT
FULL FAN

All I can say is I am the Original

Does this count? When I went to taxidermy school it was loaded w rednecks. We used to joke back n forth.
Most of the guys figured a guy from Jersey couldn't hang. Well we'd fish, run coon hounds, turkey hunt obviously n I guess I gained some respect from the hillbillies. They put this on my truck.
Best time of my life n the only time l liked school

Good way to attract attention to a hunting spot.  I'll pass.

I don't even put hunting stickers on my truck. I want everyone to think it's my first time!  :funnyturkey:

That's what everyone says when they get caught looking for hookers

Your plates are awesome. I have VFW plates and think it's time to upgrade to a thunderchicken related plate :-)

I use to have vanity plates years ago, but the extra $100.00 per year just for the plates wasn't worth it to me anymore. Now I just have the regular plates.

Love that your States have "Turkey" Plates, wish they did that up here in WI. I have seen several states that have NWTF Plates. My old Sesquicentennial have since expired, still have the plates but just Truck Plates now...

Thanks! We can only use 4 letter or numbers on these plates so it took me a bit to come up with something turkey related.

I don't have a pic but I have Virginia turkey plate with YELP1N.  Meant for YELP ONE IN but some think YELPIN.  Not bad either way.

It's been this way since the early 90's and no reason to change it now....
