Last night someone stole my vanity plate that said -prljam. I know this is a long shot but if anyone has info about this let me know. Now i have to get a new one and all the other combinations are taken. I got the plate 2 years ago as soon as i turned 16 and i was hoping to keep it for a long time. Bad way to end a great show:(

    that sucks. & ya know it probably wasnt one of us; most likely a drunk-fuck that thought "hey, ...look at that.....I'm gonna take it!!"

    we'd take a picture; it lasts longer.

    They tried to take the front plate but could only get the back. So for now i moved the bent up front one to the back. I'll be in mansfield tonight driving the black focus with 1 plate. I'm pretty sure it happened at my hotel in manchester not at the venue. 4 kids with pj shirts were parked near me and when i asked them about it they claimed they didnt know but left in a hurry.

    this might be a strange conspiracy, but I've heard lately of people stealing plates, then stealing gas...THEN ditching the stolen plates...

    if this is true, i don't know.
    but it's something to think about.

    bummer about your plates man, i'm sorry.

    that sucks, definitely call up the Registry of Motor Vehicles in your state and let them know what happened.


    Honestly, who looks at a license plate and decides to steal it? I mean a license plate?!?! c'mon

    thats just low. scum of the earth.

    the one good thing, is i doubt they are going to put it on their car and bring you any trouble that way. it will just wind up hanging on some piece of shits wall.

    that sucks, sorry. :(
    Peace, Love.

    you're fucking kidding?!
    how low.
    i thought about removing my pj car magnet before the va beach show because i thought that might happen. but then i figured pj fans aren't like that.
    or are they?

    this makes me sad.

    you just advertised what car you drive and what your license plate sez and where you will be...you should be a tad more careful, somebody may swipe the other one and then you would be screwed.

    I'm pretty sure it was taken at the hotel after the show. I don't think anyone would be stupid enough to take it at the actual show. Plus I remember seeing it as I left the show. Thanks though:)

    I think that if hoodlums were on such a mission, they probably would have had a screwdriver rather than trying to rip the plates off by hand. Still, you may want to call the DMV/police and report the plates stolen ASAP to avoid potential complications. When I was around there ~10 years ago, Hartford was rather a pit and the bums there weren't all that bright.

    As for the plates themselves, they should be tied to your registration, which is tied to you and your car, so you will probably be able to get replacement plates without paying an arm and a leg.
    Your reality, sir, is lies and balderdash and I’m
    delighted to say that I have no grasp of it whatsoever.
