In a surprising turn of events, a Bojangles fast-food restaurant in Knightdale, North Carolina, has become the talk of the town after a spelling error on its sign caught the attention of a local resident. Leandro Gonzalez Espinoza, who was working in the area with his family business, Gonzalez Gardening and Landscape LLC, couldn't believe his eyes when he noticed the typo on the large, red-letter Bojangles sign.
While working on Tuesday afternoon, Espinoza spotted the misspelled sign and felt compelled to share his finding with others. He snapped a photo of the sign and posted it on social media with the caption, "Do you see what I see." Little did he know that his post would quickly gain traction, garnering hundreds of shares by Wednesday morning.
Even Caitlin Gooch, the founder of the nonprofit organization 'Saddle Up and Read,' was amused by the blunder. Gooch, who also noticed the sign, admitted that as a dyslexic person, she initially didn't realize there was a spelling error. Intrigued by the opportunity, Gooch saw the incident as a chance to collaborate with Bojangles. She reached out to the restaurant with the idea of a program called "Books and Biscuits," where children could read while enjoying the company of animals at her farm.
To Gooch's surprise, the response from Bojangles was positive. The restaurant not only acknowledged the mistake but also expressed interest in exploring the possibility of partnering with 'Saddle Up and Read.' This collaboration could provide children with an engaging way to foster their love for reading and enjoy Bojangles' famous biscuits.
Meanwhile, signs around the Bojangles on Knightdale Boulevard indicate that the restaurant is temporarily closed for remodeling, leaving some wondering if the spelling error will be rectified during this period.
As word continues to spread on social media, the misspelled sign on the Knightdale Bojangles has become a topic of amusement and curiosity for locals. What started out as a simple typo has now presented an unexpected opportunity for a nonprofit and a fast-food chain to create a unique program that combines the joy of reading with the deliciousness of Bojangles' biscuits.
It remains to be seen how 'Saddle Up and Read' and Bojangles will collaborate, but one thing is clear: this spelling error has certainly brought the Knightdale community together in a lighthearted way.
