"( b4)	Professional Sports Supporters Plates. – The Division must receive 300 or more applications for a sports supporter plate for a particular professional sports team before a plate may be developed.  The Division may, upon receipt of the 300 or more applications from supporters of a particular professional sports team representing a city in North Carolina, develop a registration plate with a unique number and bearing the logo for that professional sports team.  Provided, however, no sports supporter plate shall be developed unless the professional sports team licenses the State of North Carolina to develop the sports supporter plate bearing the official team logo."
