We Tracked Down The Kid Vice President Dan Quayle Made Misspell “Potato”

BuzzFeed News launched a new show on Facebook Watch on Monday, That Literally Happened, which revisits some of the most notorious events and trends of the ’90s.

The first episode digs into one of the era’s most notorious political gaffes: the time former vice president Dan Quayle misspelled potato. Yep. Potato.

For those who don’t remember, on June 15, 1992, Dan Quayle was making a routine campaign stop, pushing then-president George H.W. Bush’s “Weed and Seed” program at a Trenton, New Jersey, middle school, when he found himself presiding over a mock spelling bee.

In a room filled with reporters, Quayle called 12-year-old William Figueroa to the board, prompting him to “spell potato.” Figueroa stepped up, correctly spelled potato, erased the word, and went to sit down — until the vice president stopped him, saying, “Hold on now, add a little to the end there.”
