Well, the question was mainly for the roadgeeks who are from around here/visit here frequently and see the correct signage regularly, so that it would look wrong to them. I wasn't really expecting people from Minnesota to try and guess it! :-P

Although I don't have the pictures 2 show them, I recall 1 (c.late 1960's or so) of a road sign that was suppose 2 say, "Watch For Slow Trucks," but the r + u were switched around so the word read "Turks."  Another 1 in recent years said, "Traffic Must Yield To Pedestrians," the i + e switched around 2 read "Yeild." :coffee:

I've seen a "STOP AHAED" sign before (A and E transposed), as well as the same error painted on the pavement.   :ded:

I see meat cleavers almost every day but I've never even noticed the border wasn't supposed to go through the 0.  Shows how closely I pay attention.
