Lame state agency thinks 'Spinal Tap' license plate is obscene

Anyone who's seen the classic mock-doc "This is Spinal Tap" knows that one of the film's best jokes concerns an amplifier that "goes to 11": "What we do is if we need that extra push over the cliff...Eleven." LOL, right? Washington state resident Tony Cava liked the joke so much that he immortalized it on his license plate with GOES211 — and he was "befuddled" when the request was denied by the state Department of Licensing: "I find it in poor taste that the great state of Washington would issue a plate that allows a driver to insinuate in public that his penis grows to 11 inches in length." Score one for movie lovers: Cava prevailed on appeal. [Source]
