Indeed, I often make the same mistakes.

When I heard that Owen was playing for England, I assumed it would be 'Last
of the Summer wine' star Bill Owen. How wrong I was.

Then there was that other time when my mate excitedly phoned me, told me to
turn on the TV and watch Bungle, the bear out of Rainbow.

Turns out it was just a foreign player who's name happened to be 'Bungle The
Bear Out of Rainbow'.

Deeply mistaken times.
