RE(ally) GRAND?


Susan found this sign in Gig Harbor, WA. As she says, "I guess it wasn't grand enough the first time!"
It does beg the question, though . . . how is a "re-grand" opening different than a grand "re"-opening?
(I'll stop now before the quotation mark police come after me . . . :-) )

Amazing. I live in Seattle, and my neighborhood gym is also holding a Re-Grand Opening. Somewhere in Washington, a signmaker is very confused.

I also see these all the time. So between the author, the printer, and the person who hangs the sign...no one gets it. Amazing.

no way--for real?! How DOES one use the phrase, then? I gladly stand corrected.
