So it turns out there was a defect in the year stickers that Nebraska made for car plates to register in November. If the glue gets really cold (like -20°F temperatures we had), the sticker peels off.

The state says they will let anyone with a November sticker set replace them for $5. Thanks, loads folks. I’m betting those of us with cars registered in November can’t sue either (constitutional requirement for a suit to be at least $20, and sovereign immunity for the state government).
