The state of Nebraska was just informed today that our new license plate would be this:
After the results were announced, we quickly found out we had been had. College Humor had a page devoted to “Ruin a Nebraska”. So we’re stuck with boring license plates, voted on by users of CollegeHumor.
At least we’ll be known for football and now for a boring license plate. NebraskPWNED!

May 19, 2009 at 6:09 pm
I’m sorry but I don’t even consider Nebraska a football state…Ohio State is more like it Shoemeister…Sorry…
Nebraska is known for it’s corn fields…
And you Shoemeister!!!

i partied in columbus ohio
May 19, 2009 at 6:10 pm
Oh well, now 5 people who have cars in Nebraska will own the ugly plates.
j/j
I think they are doing it everywhere now. A few years ago I lived in Indiana and they made ugly green plates as well.
May 19, 2009 at 6:38 pm
I remember those ugly green plates. Lucky for me, it matched the Accord that I drove back then…since then, they changed the Indiana plates to “In God We Trust” which for some reason were recalled by IDOT and everyone got another set of plain looking plates.
May 20, 2009 at 12:02 pm
Thats funny… These states must be running out of the designers.
For some reason all coastal plates still have pretty ones. 
May 19, 2009 at 6:24 pm
I wonder if one could ever invent a license plate that everyone would like… lol
May 19, 2009 at 7:09 pm
this is pretty funny man, don’t forget about Warren though, he makes you guys famous too though
May 19, 2009 at 7:44 pm
haha ouch.. well hey they still look better then those HORRIBLE smiley “its that friendly” license plates we had in KY a few years back
May 19, 2009 at 7:46 pm
I miss Lazlo’s almost as much as the almighty ‘Skers! mmmm—-Lavosh! I saw Bo P is now twittering w/ 1000 followers in the first week!
May 19, 2009 at 7:48 pm
It looks better then our boring old plates out here in CA.
May 19, 2009 at 7:59 pm
Hmm, shame the poll is closed, I would have liked to have seen the other options.
I don’t really see what’s wrong with the design, though. It looks fine to me.
May 20, 2009 at 10:31 am
Google cache has it.

Enjoy!

I think it is a sad state of affairs that NE got pranked like that. Can’t the state government oppose this change? Well, if not at least I can be glad I don’t live in NE.
you have my sympathies.
May 20, 2009 at 1:57 am
Nice dull grey color. One of the states should come out with a totally customizable photo license plate… kind of like how they do the photo postage stamps.
May 20, 2009 at 2:56 am
This is really sad story shoe. Not sure what to tell & i clearly remember those ugly green plates..lol
May 20, 2009 at 6:34 am
It doesn’t look too bad to me. What’s wrong with simple?
May 20, 2009 at 8:01 am
I can’t see anything wrong with the plates.
May 20, 2009 at 8:38 am
well I dont see nothing wrong with this licence, maybe people see it a little bit simple and also the grey color is like a sad color but for me it looks like very cool. If you are upset about this you should come and see the licence of panama that’s really ugly licence
May 20, 2009 at 9:06 am
This happened because CollegeHumor.com has more readers than the entire state of Nebraska. What’s their population? 100 people? 105?
May 20, 2009 at 2:35 pm
no it more like Colllege humor had more readers than people that gave a damn about Nebraskas license plate. and that might have been 100-105
May 22, 2009 at 11:38 am
Wow you’re kind of an idiot. And since 100% of the replies you’ve received to this comment have called you out on your idiocy, there must not be anyone in the world who thinks otherwise. Because absolutely every living person posts their opinion to stupid shit on the internet.
May 23, 2009 at 12:48 pm
Hey Matt last time I checked Nebraska had a little under 2 million people in it so get a life you stereotypical jerk…
August 10, 2009 at 2:40 pm
Wow, first time I came back to this post since I posted my first comment.
Way to go, Eric! You got the Shoe-like satire Jeremy liberally sprinkles throughout his blog. Looks like Nathan and Rachel need to take a less from you (and find a coke and a smile).
May 20, 2009 at 10:00 am
I live in Nebraska too, and when I saw the picture I was like what the hell man, that license plate is sooo lame.
Why can we just not keep the ones we have and save some money stupid NE legislators or people who decided that it was a good idea for a new license plate.
May 20, 2009 at 10:07 am
LOL, the power of the net! The fade is great, it does look like the typical power point slide.
May 20, 2009 at 10:44 am
The other 3 “finalists” weren’t much to look at either, but it’s funny how first Time got pwned and now Nebraska. What’s next?
May 22, 2009 at 11:40 am
Time wasn’t “pwned”. They asked who was the most influential person of 2009. Moot won when his followers flooded the polls. Do you know what the word influential means?
Also does anybody use “pwned” unironically anymore?
May 20, 2009 at 12:55 pm
Are you telling me you guys only have 1 license plate? We have over 200 different plates in Virginia – http://bit.ly/2TCEg
May 20, 2009 at 3:13 pm
Why oh why is the number plate cluttered. We don’t have anything except the registration number on the plates in India and nothing is allowed either.
May 20, 2009 at 6:05 pm
All of those plates were pretty weak… was the winning plate the one they told everyone to vote for?
May 20, 2009 at 6:48 pm
Well, at least those plates will look tasteful on funeral home cars.
May 22, 2009 at 4:27 pm
At least Nebraska gives its citizens a choice. Why don’t you folks grow up, become adults and do something constructive for a change. Kind of reminds me of computers hackers and grafiti taggers. Always trying to pick on other people who have done nothing to them. Oh, and by the way, we Nebraskans do have our issues but remember the scripture “let he who has no sin cast the first stone”. Oh, and noticed it doesn’t say STONED. Grow up guys…
May 23, 2009 at 12:01 pm
So, did the state of Nebraska do something to them? That plate looks really plain! At least a picture could have been added.
May 23, 2009 at 3:04 pm
http://www.omaha.com/index.php?u_page=2798&u_sid=10639217
at least they admitted it. I want the old plate though I like the gradient better than the one they are actually going to go with.
Sigh… Big time problems nothing else could possibly be worse in the world–
–idiots please note the sarcasm in the last sentence
May 25, 2009 at 7:40 pm
Haha that’s so awesome!
