I know. You have played the License Plate Game during other road trips.
That's fine.
But, there are plenty of ways to play it. Feast your eyes:
1) See how many state license plates you can find. You can manipulate time or distance.
2) See how many college and university license plate frames or decals you can find. This game may also include fraternities & sororities.
3) Create a bracket of 64 license plates like the NCAA tournament bracket setup. See which state, Canadian province, or country survives.
4) Have individual states compete against each other: California vs Colorado; Maine vs Michigan; and others. Again, you can compete over time, distance, or days.
5) Compete within a state. Every state has different plates. So, see which plate variation appears the most.
6) Create a bracket of any size of the state plate variations only. You have to pick the variation you want to see and not just the state or typical (most popular) license plate of a particular state.
7) Start a points system. Who can garner the most points by seeing the most or certain state license plates, colleges & universities, sports teams, fraternities & sororities, and more.
8) Acronyms 'R Us. We never had a name for it. But, my dad and I used to make up acronyms, using the letters from license plates. It helped me with acronyms and in memorizing license plates, especially in a hit-and-run. The key: you have to say your acronym without hesitation.
9) First to 10 then...Obviously, when you drive in the state you live or a tri-state area like DC, MD, and VA, you will see more license plates from your area right away. So, in competition, find 10 area plates before you count other states. For example, in this area, I'll pick 10 Maryland plates before an Ohio versus New Hampshire license plate battle. Got it?
You can pick first to 5 then..., first to any number but make it quick.
10) Play a sport...Huh? Pick a sport such as ice hockey, basketball, or other, and substitute license plates you see for teams and rules. What? For example, one person picks Nevada. The other selects Michigan. For every NV plate seen is a point or goal. Same for MI. Every New Jersey plate is a check. Every Montana plate is a 2:00 minor penalty. Every Massachusetts plate is a save.
Get it?
Mix in other states how you want to in order to make the game fun.
If you don't understand, then you can ask me.
Enjoy the ride!
Much success to you | Derek | @teemptraining | derekteempt@gmail.com
