Earlier this week, Deion Sanders had quite a gaffe when he admitted he thought Mount Rushmore was in California.
The Colorado head football coach learned on Tuesday that the monument with the busts of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln is actually located in Keystone, South Dakota.
"I thought it was in L.A. all this time," Sanders said, mixing up the monument with the Hollywood sign. "Wow. My geography. That’s the Hollywood thing? That's what I thought. I'm sorry. Thank you for educating me.
