Colorado announced the winners of its first-ever "Name That Plow" contest, which drew in more than 1,100 submissions from elementary school kids from all corners of the state.

Meet our newest fleet:

  • Abominable
  • Arctic King
  • Bigfoot
  • Blizzard
  • Cheese Ball
  • Darth Blader
  • Eisenplower
  • Fresh Plowder
  • Frosty
  • Jack Frost
  • Mr. Plow
  • Mr. Snowtastic
  • No-way Snow-day
  • Olaf
  • Plowzilla
  • Sno-way
  • Snow Crusher
  • Snowball
  • Snowtorious B.I.G.
  • Zebulon Ice

My thought bubble: Gov. Jared Polis needs to work on his sense of humor, because he excluded ALL 17 of the best suggested names I rounded up after digging through the entries.
