<div><p>By now you've seen the <a href="https://www.shared.com/for-the-first-time-in-academy-award-history-this-major-incident-happened/">huge mistake</a> that this year's Oscars ceremony will be remembered forever for, but that wasn't the first time things have gone wrong during the show.</p><p>Little mistakes happen here or there, like people missing their cue, but it takes a lot of work to create a mix-up as bad as handing someone the wrong card. But, amazingly, that's now happened <strong>twice</strong> in the show's history.</p><p>The first time was way back in 1964.
