From CNY Central:
“The City of Syracuse could only select 10 names for its snowplow naming contest last December, but there was plenty to choose from among the more than 2,000 submissions. Friday, the city released the list of submitted names to us. Not everyone was original — there were 174 “Plowy McPlowface” submissions and 274 “Santa Maria” submissions. The hundreds of “Santa Maria” submissions reflected a push from some to recognize Christopher Columbus and Italian heritage, according to the hundreds of reasonings written by submitters.
