What was a whacky theory or thought you had when you were a kid?

Ok so you know how on most of the bathrooms in stores and whatnot, they have the wheelchair symbol to show that it's handicap accessible? When I was a kid, I didn't know what that meant so I thought it was just the symbol for bathroom. And then outside in the parking lot they always had a parking spot with the wheelchair symbol that was closest to the store for handicap people to park in. And I thought in my little kid brain that the handicap parking spot was in case you had to go to the bathroom really bad, you could park there and run in really quickly.
