An apparently misspelled road sign near Big White Ski Resort has become infamous.

The sign, which reads 91裸聊视频淓ntering Kootney Boundry,91裸聊视频 was spotted along Big White Road on Thursday by Kelowna man Mike. St. Clair, and posted to Facebook where it gathered dozens of confused comments.

91裸聊视频淚 drive by at 40 kilometres an hour and noticed they misspelled Kootenay,91裸聊视频 said St. Clair.

St. Clair, who works in the Big White area, said that the sign is relatively new. A Black Press Media reporter was able to find and confirm the sign.

91裸聊视频淭his is our tax money hard at work and somebody can91裸聊视频檛 spell? It would be like the government sending you a cheque and spelling your name wrong,91裸聊视频 St. Clair said.

The Facebook post was stormed with multiple requests to forward the picture to the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB), with hopes that the sign could get replaced quickly with the correct spelling.

Oddly enough, the sign is only a few kilometres away from a correctly spelled road sign on Highway 33.

Frances Maika with the regional district said they were first made aware of the sign by the Big White Fire Department on Thursday evening, and have since received countless calls and messages.
