As if life in the D.C. area wasn't hard enough for a person with a license plate that reads "F RGIII," things may have gotten a little more complicated for this Dallas Cowboys fan.
A Washington Redskins fan spotted a seemingly offensive license plate on a car that had a Dallas Cowboys sticker on the bumper. And he tweeted a photo at the Virginia DMV:
@VirginiaDMV @Redskins @dcsportsbog how did this plate make it thru? You know what the F stands for right? #HTTR pic.twitter.com/je2WmS6TND

The Virginia DMV, which has an active and humorous Twitter feed, quickly responded.
@andy_boothe We'll have this reviewed immediately. Sometimes the system misses certain combos. Thx for the alert! @Redskins @dcsportsbog

The Virginia DMV's website notes that applications for license plates that are "profane, obscene, or vulgar in nature" will be rejected. While there's a chance this person just loves frogs, the Dallas Cowboys sticker on the car isn't helping his or her cause.
Naturally that tweet prompted Cowboys fans to respond with a potentially offensive license plate of their own.
Hey @dallascowboys & #Cowboys fans, wanted to make sure @VirginiaDMV was aware this slipped thru cracks as well... pic.twitter.com/64yGe0nVX5

Once again, the Virginia DMV was quick in its response:
@ThaOutlaws @dallascowboys This plate has already been reviewed & appropriate action taken. Thank you.
