It’s All in How You Read It

‎07-01-2021 07:58 PM

I have always been intrigued by the Petsmart sign and how ads seem to pronounce the name.  To me the logo coloring says it should be "Pet Smart." Listening to ads and discussions I hear "Pets Mart." Seems to me the obvious slogan should be "If you are Pet Smart, shop at Pets Mart." Thoughts on how the name should be read?

 

Any other examples of "it's all in how you read it?"

I guess there really is a place called Sam and Ella's Chicken Palace.

@On It   It's Pet Smart.  When you look at the coloring of the logo it's obvious.
