I noticed that when I went to Disney World about five years ago. I let it slide, but I wouldn't have if I'd known I could gain fame and fortune for nitpicking! I guess it would have been less precious, as I was seventeen at the time.
I am rather sick of the "Thousands of tourists didn't notice!" comment. I'm sure plenty of people did, they just weren't about to call up the Disney honchos to complain.
Oh, and Hannah, “I read it out loud, and I’m like, ‘Hey, that doesn’t sound right,” Hannah said. “A singular number can’t be with a plural.” is a horribly-worded sentence. Every grammarian worth her commas knows how to use "can" properly and despises when people use "like" as a substitute for "thought" or "said".
Correct sentence structure would look something like this: "I read it out loud and I thought, 'Hey, that doesn't sound right. A singular object shouldn't be pluralized." Those in glass houses, Hannah... ;)

I'd love an Oberon (stainless steel w/ blue LEDs)!
