You can barely make it out in this grainy picture I took last night through my windshield with my phone, but the Corvette’s license plate says MR BAD 7. Do you suppose the driver is the seventh-baddest dude in Florida, or that he owns six cars even badder than the Corvette?
I think that makes him even badder. Where is it written that a bad dude can’t support the arts and still be totally bad and really awesome and drive a flippin’ sweet Corvette?

If that’s a pink and green “State of the Arts” plate, then I highly dispute this gentleman’s badness.

Uh, if they still have the Panther plates, I’d vote for that being closer to bad than the pink and green bit.
Now if he had the manatee plates… Off the charts badness…

Oh, we still have the Panther plate, all right. And 103 other specialty plates, too. Seriously, can any state even come close to touching this ridiculous proliferation of license plates? I mean, Support Homeownership For All? Seriously?
