San Diego, CA – Snoopy will soon be seen riding with thousands of California motorists.
His head hanging out the window is not where the peanuts character will be found. Instead, Snoopy will adorn the license plates as Assembly Speaker Toni Atkins (D-San Diego) announced that the famous dog reached the 7,500 preorder requirement for the plates to begin production.
“Once the plates are in production and people begin to see them on the roadways, we expect orders to increase exponentially,” said Speaker Atkins. “Revenue from the plates will help museums fulfill their educational missions and serve Californians. Our museums are an important part of our history and culture—that’s why we have to keep them strong and in place for future generations.”
The deadline to pre-order the plates is Friday, Dec. 18 at 11 a.m., which entitles the buyer to the “Beagle Backer” program offering free or discounted admission to over 85 participating museums.
