R is for Rest Areas!

LOL I'm a little behind here.  I knew what I wanted to post about on Thursday, but just never got the chance. 

So here it is. 

Did you know that former Governor Christine Whitman named a rest area after Howard Stern?

Yep in February of 1995 Governor Whitman kept her campaign promise she made to Howard Stern and named a rest area after him after he helped her get elected.  There was a sign in the rest room of a caricature of Howard peeking out from behind an outhouse.  That sign was stolen so many times, that they just stopped putting it back up.

Only in New Jersey!
