[CamiLyn227]

Very interesting. I will be looking for more of these this summer!

Inside the star on the handprint list, Steve Allen's wife was actually Jayne Meadows, not Meadow.

Add to the list of names spelled incorrectly:

Bobcat Goldthwait
Ray Liotta
Jason Priestley
Sylvester Stallone

Looks like this girl wrote Disney about a misspelled word...

I think this one is suppose to be this way due to the theming??

Correct. The error on that sign was thematic. I'm not sure if they actually fixed it, or just gave her a pat on the head and congratulated her for pointing it out.

I should have emailed them about "Mrs. Pott's" so I can get on TV, too!

 

[Silver Figment]

Remembered this from "The Hall of Presidents". Andrew Johnson quote: “It's a damn poor mind that can only think of one way to spell a word.” ...

Yes

Ray Liotta is also mispelled on the hand print list.

Jason Priestley's name is misspelled in the handprints list. I've noticed that for years.

Inside the star on the handprint list, Steve Allen's wife was actually Jayne Meadows, not Meadow.

Add to the list of names spelled incorrectly:

Bobcat Goldthwait
Ray Liotta
Jason Priestley
Sylvester Stallone

Thanks for catching these too.

Ed McMahon... Not McMahan
Rue McClanahan Not McClannahan

the Rocketeer....Rocketeer, the ------ Really? How sad.

Perhaps the misspellings are not misspellings and they couldn't get the famous people.
Maybe Jim Conway works in Wardrobe?
Maybe Christy Brinkley is a monorail pilot?
Perhaps Phillis Diller works at the Grand Floridian in Reservations?

Annette... She dropped her last name?

I wonder if they meant to misspell some of the names on the list because I found yet even more...

Suzanne Somers

Rebecca De Mornay

Howard Hesseman

Misha Taylor

How did they get Emogene Cora? Her name is Imogene Coca.....

I'm starting to think the same thing.....these are "fake" names. The list is way too FUBAR to actually be full of this many mistakes. They either had a 6th grader put it together, or it's intentional.

Yes this has to be intentional. Looks like a I have a new research project to do. This is going to be tough finding out the answer though or even getting any info at all about the names, but I'm going to try.

Anyone have a link to a full photo of that handprints list?

Try this link to Matt's site.

Not sure where people are getting some of these errors. The prints that I've been looking at are all correct thus far.

See, that is what makes it special. Even WDW makes mistakes! I just have to remember that when my daughter drops her milk all over my carpet.

"Disney does it too.. Disney does it too".

LOL

Wasn't that Andrew Jackson?

Yeah. Andrew Johnson was my 9th grade english teacher.

I even tried to take the missing letters from the names or the letters that needed to be added to the names to make them correct to see if there was a secret word or phrase. I think I have been reading too many mystery novels.
But yes, there has to be a reason there are so many misspelled names on that list.
