Wayne Gretzky made a name for himself throughout the hockey community before he was even 10-years-old. By the time the Brantford, Ontario native was six-years-old, he was already playing against kids nearly four years older than him.
However, not everyone was a hockey fan so not everyone knew who he was.
A photo from one of Gretzky’s old yearbooks recently surfaced, and believe it or not they spelled his name wrong.
We know it’s just a school yearbook, but you’d think they would double check the spelling of the names before publishing the final product.
At least that error happened when he was just a kid as he was recently presented with a personalized soccer jersey, only his name was once again misspelled.
The NHL’s all-time leading scorer received his very own jersey when he visited Tottenham a couple of years ago, only they misspelled his name by adding an “S” instead of a “Z”.
