I believe that this is to what you refer:

"The eighth letter of the alphabet is "H." Eight two times signifies "HH, " shorthand for the Nazi greeting, "Heil Hitler." 88 is often found on hate group flyers, in both the greetings and closing comments of letters written by neo-Nazis, and in e-mail addresses. "

Unless you meant to display anti-Semitic (hope I spelled that correctly) attitudes, I doubt that would make you a racist.

After all, my favorite football player of all time is Lynn Swann of the Pittsburgh Steelers whose number is 88. Who's to say that you aren't a fellow fan? I wouldn't lose too much sleep over this one.

You lost me. I fail to see how 88 can be racist.

It depends on what you are trying to say with it. Are you in fact trying to celebrate Hitler and what he represents or is it for another reason?
Say your favorite players number?
The year the car was made?
the age your grandfather lived to?
Some poeple will see it as what ever they want no matter what you intend it as.

Can someone explain this? I honestly have never heard about a number being racist.

From what I understand it is only racist in conjunction with other symbols or phrases. Since no one really seems to know what your talking about you should be ok. (maybe you should steer clear if you live in the south.)

Where I live, the chinese will pay lots of extra money to have a license with 8 s on it, the more the better
8s are very lucky to them

You should take a racial sensitivity training course, you redneck. Us enlightened people don't even count that number anymore. It's like 86, 87, 89, 90. The world is a better place without you.
