Apostrophe Abuse

Apostrophe Abuse, originally uploaded by [clint].

This sign outside Sluggers in Wrigley that welcomes Cub(s) fans has enough misused apostrophes to make the Internet grammar Nazi’s heads explode. Normally, I really don’t pay much attention to grammar mistakes since I mess up this same punctuation at least once a day.

But, the banner is so littered with errors it even caught my eye. Being so obvious that it’s hard to imaging their media intern missing multiple mistakes, I wonder if the apostrophe abuse was intended. Like a way to take some pressure off the Cubs and distract from their horrible season. Sort of like “Hey guys, its cool, we’re not at the top of our game either”. Or maybe it’s poking fun at the Ernie Banks “Let’s Play Two” statue that was missing an apostrophe from 2008?
