It Feels Good Winning “3st” Place

While everyone aims for the first prize in a competition, settling for the second or the third position is not bad either. It is all about the spirit of competition, right? However, this medal, at best, is giving out confusing vibes. Did the medal maker want to write 1st but wrote 3st instead, or completely forget that it is 3rd and not 3st?

Perhaps the medal makers live in a country that does not speak English as a first language and hence make this unintentional mistake. It is possible to goof up on ordinal numbers, which represent the position or order of appearance of numbers. Hopefully, the medal makers will set it right to avoid confusion for the winners.
