Answer: A. The spelling bee trophy had a misspelled word on it
Explanation:
Situational irony refers to a scenario where something to expect to happen is instead the opposite of what happens.
In this scenario, the Spelling bee trophy being misspelled is the situational irony. This is because, the Spelling bee is a contest that tests the spelling of others and should therefore ascribe to the highest standards of accuracy when it comes to spelling anything related to it. Instead this expectation is the exact opposite of what happened as the trophy had a misspelled word.
