BRD LVS

My Massachusetts Vanity license plate reads:

BRD LVS

Of course it stands for BIRD LIVES.
I recently learned of another BRD LVS plate in Maine.
Does anyone else out there share the passion for Charlie Parker in the same way?
Do you know of a similar license plate in your state or country?

Just curious.

I'm hoping there is one in every United state and all 50 of us can convene in Kansas City!

There's a Prius in my NoVA neighborhood that is licensed "MINGUS" but I haven't seen a Bird one.

I think a requirement for holding public office in the United States should be the ability to sing the head from a Bird tune. Anything from the Savoy, Dial, or Verve catalog would do, although I have to admit I would be inclined to give my vote to any candidate who could make it through the head of "Klactoveesedstene."

For minor offices the alto break from Night in Tunisia should be sufficient.
