Misused Apostrophe In West Detroit


This misused apostrophe was found on Warren and Greenfield in Detroit, MI. This is a misused apostrophe because an apostrophe was supposed to be used after the R and before the S. It should have followed the plural word rule of apostrophes. On the back of the menu it uses the apostrophe correctly, but not on the building or front page. It should have been spelled CAESAR'S.
