After teaching Josh about the license plate game, however, I noticed something interesting about Idaho's: Beneath the letters and numbers for Idaho’s license plate, it very clearly states, “Famous Potatoes,” just as I thought. Above the letters, however, a little word is painted in cursive about the Idaho identifier: Scenic.
