Last one I can think of be fore that was "barbershop" being spelled "Babershop" this too took the person awhile to figure out the correct spelling. What's the story behind the second photo?  |  IP: Logged Mike Pennell Expert Film Handler Posts: 150 From: Tucson, AZ, USA Registered: Apr 2003 posted 06-12-2004 03:18 AM                     Chris it looks like the guy pissed himself  |  IP: Logged Anslem Rayburn Master Film Handler Posts: 476 From: Yuma, AZ, USA Registered: May 2002 posted 06-12-2004 06:01 AM                     Best marquee "mistake" I ever saw was when one of our ushers put up "Monster Balls" instead of "Monsters Ball". He had already put the ladder and tiles away, and had to drag everything back out, so it might have been an honest mistake...  |  IP: Logged Dominic Espinosa Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1172 From: Boulder Creek, CA. Registered: Jan 2004 posted 06-12-2004 11:18 AM                     Come see monster balls on our biggest screen! You wont believe your eyes! Recently there was the whole Shreck 2 misspelling on some sold out signs in our box office. Delving into the past there was the time a manager tried to thread a movie tail first.  |  IP: Logged Thomas Procyk Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1842 From: Royal Palm Beach, FL, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 06-12-2004 11:54 AM                     quote: Mike Pennell Chris it looks like the guy pissed himself HHHHHHHOT! =TMP=  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 06-12-2004 12:26 PM                        We had a marquee kid once who put up FRESH HORES (instead of "horses") In a semi-related note, a competing theatre near us on their recording, says Harry Potter and the Prisoner of "Azikban." P.S. I've been to the theatre pictured on top of this thread...that marquee is way cool at night!  |  IP: Logged Scott D.
