Top Annoying Misnaming People Do

[DrDientes]

I was just looking around a muppet stuff when i found a plush toy of super grover but is was listed as sesame street toy super coco instead of super grover

Well, Grover's name in Spain is Coco, so...

If it was a German who said this, it's quite understandable, since the character is Danish in Germany. Still quite stupid that the Swedish Chef is Danish in Germany. What were they thinking? If he were Danish in Sweden it'd understandable, but in Germany?

Gr, Rax

The Swedish Chef is apparently more popular with Muppet fans than in his "home country"....

Fozzy Bear in the picture caption...and then "Cratchit" is spelled wrong (it's not a Muppet name, but still...)

Not just Fozzy Bear... Fozzy the Bear! Since when is there a "the" in Fozzie's name?

You're right! Fozzie was a typoas "Fozzy". It was spelled "crachet." Ah ha! Typo! Thank you for pointing out the mistakes. I am so glad I read the article first.

I didn't even notice the "the" for some reason...I guess I was too upset about the "Fozzy"

I was sure when they were working on the article, they forgot about the typos. Ugh!

I haven't ever heard this before, but has anyone else ever heard the Swedish Chef accidentally being called "The Swedish Chief" by mistake?

The two words look so similar, they might accidentally get confused....
