Sacramento River Cats Fine Those Misspelling Team's Name

WEST SACRAMENTO - After 13 years, some still have trouble spelling the Sacramento River Cats. So the team has announced it will be fining anyone that misspells the team's moniker.

The team wants everyone to know that "River Cats" is comprised of two words. So, effective immediately, anyone that incorrectly spells "River Cats" faces a $1 fine from the organization. The team has made exceptions for Twitter mentions, text messages, and handwritten notes.

So far, a total of $7 has been collected. All money collected will go to the River Cats Foundation.
