1992: Dan Quayle, relying on faulty card, erroneously instructs Trenton NJ, elementary student to spell "potato," "potatoe" during spelling bee
**Title: "Veep's Epic Spelling Fail!"**
Holy froot loops, dudes and dudettes! Remember that totally wacky time in '92 when our VP, Dan Quayle, turned into Captain Typo and taught us all how to goof up the spelling of "potato?" Yeah, he went all in and added an "e" at the end during a school spelling bee. Talk about an epic facepalm moment, right? So next time your little bro gives you guff for messing up on your homework, just remind him even the bigwigs trip over their own shoelaces sometimes!
