The wrong thing to put on a license plate

DOH! Guy walks into a bar, has a few, comes out with a BAC twice legal limit, gets in his car and starts driving. A cop pulls him over and hilarity ensues. From the Minneapolis Star Tribune:
A North Dakota man charged with drunken driving probably wishes his license plate had a different moniker.

Josiah Johnson, 23, said his license plate, which says "TIPSY,'' might have tipped off the Clay County sheriff's deputy who pulled him over after he left Coach's Sports Pub in Moorhead on Friday.

"I kind of felt like I was being harassed,'' the Argusville man said.

Johnson faces third-degree DWI charges after his blood-alcohol level registered twice the legal limit.
And Johnson's comment:
"I feel really stupid,'' he said.
