The votes are in and more than 122,000 Minnesotans have voted to name eight snowplows in the state’s fleet. And, of course, Plowy McPlowface tops the list.
The winning names are: Plowy McPlowFace (Metro district); Ope, Just Gonna Plow Right Past Ya (District 4); Duck Duck Orange Truck (District 1); Plow Bunyan (District 2); Snowbi Wan Kenobi (District 6); F. Salt Fitzgerald (District 7), Darth Blader (District 3); and The Truck Formerly Known As Plow (District 8).
The competition started earlier this winter and people were asked to submit suggestions for the names of eight plows. Each plow will serve in one of Minnesota’s eight districts. More than 24,000 suggestions came in, according to CBS Minnesota, and the list was whittled down to 50 that people were asked to vote for online.
Minnesota residents voted on a number of fun names for eight snowplows belonging to the state Department of Transportation. For District 2, the northwest Minnesota region, the snowplow will be named Plow Bunyan.
