In what will be one of the more bizarre stories published on Casino.org this year, officials in Maryland say a URL that’s printed on nearly 800K state-issued license plates directs visitors to an online casino platform based in the Philippines.

Nearly 800K Maryland residents are driving around with a commemorative license plate that features a URL that directs to an online gambling website based in the Philippines.
In anticipation of the 200-year anniversary of the War of 1812, in which Fort McHenry in Baltimore played a critical role, the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) produced commemorative War of 1812 license plates. The tags were made available to Marylanders looking to honor the state’s roots, but also served as the state’s default license plate from 2012 until 2016.
The plates include the website address www.starspangled200.org. A decade ago when Maryland’s MVA was issuing the plates, the website was the online home of “Star-Spangled 200 Inc.,” a state agency formed to educate the public through celebration and commemoration of the historical events of the War of 1812.
