Ever touch something and think it’s Braille when in reality it’s just a texture? (self.Blind)

Those of you that read or use Braille, do you ever touch something textured and get confused whether or not it’s Braille?

Not unintentionally.
Sometimes my sighted comes up to me with a jar with some dots on it and ask me if it's Braille.
They always sound so disappointed when it isn't. :)

Yes! This has happened to me a few times, most recently at a conference centre. The dots happened to be part of a map (there was no braille at all.)
