There's all sorts of stories in this plate. They involve, mathematics, Luther Shetler, 1951, and a professional association. For a concise explanation ask Duane Bollenbacher. It's his plate.
This one makes sense if you have a mind like Ropp Triplett. "TRIP C" as we understand it means "Triplett Car." Another plate, "TRIP V," therefore would mean "Triplett Van." Ropp claims this is the only way he can remember his license plate. In this system, we suppose TRIP B would mean Triplett Bus.

There's an interesting story behind this plate plus a local connection. The plate means that the driver of the vehicle is Six-foot-nine inches tall. The plate belongs to Paul Klassen of Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. The Icon spotted the plate at the Dairy Freeze, where Paul and his wife, Ruth, were having ice cream cones. The Klassens are parents of Karen Klassen Harder of Bluffton. Paul says he was once 6-9, but may have lost an inch somewhere along the way.
