Back in Illinois in the 70s, one of the local heroes always ran the number 4U (for you)
I've also seen or heard of 1st, U1, I1, 1$ and various Roman numerals
There was a cop who ran at Lincoln in a "TEAM DUI" car with the number .08

If you want to see really funny numbers, though, go to a bout of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association. While the bouts are for real (as opposed to the old TV "sports entertainment" version), the rest of the goings on show a slightly skewed sense of humor. Most, if not all, of the skaters have pun-filled "skater names", and some of the couplings of skater name to number are quite clever.

Yea, I remember a big fat "lady" with a 747 on her back. :laughing7:

At Linda's Speedway quite a few years ago there used to be two thundercars with (MOO) as a number and a (?) as the car number
