I gave NJ Motor Vehicles several options for an umpire-related vanity plate for my motorcycle. Somebody already had

BALL4
STRIKE
BLUE

But I got

SEZ U

which I'm happy I got, since STRIKE might have had people thinking I was some sort of labor organizer, and BLUE is just a color to most people. BALL4 would provoke insults from people who think my strike zone is too tight.

I saw one ASA ump with

UMP 3

NJ prohibits obvious combinations of letters, as well as any combination that might lead some kid to shoot up his school: BLD, KLL, DTH, MRDR, BMB, etc.

One Italian guy chose the plate WOP (plus a number), but they ended up taking it back from him. I don't know whether or not they refunded his vanity plate fee or gave him another choice.
