November 17, 201510 yr Suing over the use of "The Shoe." Ohio State sues Cincinnati casino over ?Shoe? name | The Columbus Dispatch
November 17, 201510 yr Interesting. Gambling site being sued by an organization where gamblers obsess.
November 17, 201510 yr Article states that OSU has also trademarked the name "Urban Meyer". I wonder how he feels about that. What happens when Urban leaves OSU someday?!
November 17, 201510 yr Kind of useless. The Cincy casino will no longer be named the Horseshoe and Caesars will have nothing to do with the casino within the next 6 months. They filed for partial bankruptcy protection or something like that and they dropped the 2 Ohio casinos as part of that.
November 17, 201510 yr Maybe they could change the name to The Art Schlichter Palace....wouldn't that make everyone, including Art, happy ?
November 17, 201510 yr Maybe they could change the name to The Art Schlichter Palace....wouldn't that make everyone, including Art, happy ? That's going old school. You win the internet today. :thumb:
November 18, 201510 yr The level of narcissism that oozes out of THE Ohio State University has no bounds.
November 18, 201510 yr I hear they're going to sue every business with the word "THE" in the title next.
November 18, 201510 yr The level of narcissism that oozes out of THE Ohio State University has no bounds. Yeah, because no other university has ever done something as stupid as this. Oh, wait...

November 18, 201510 yr Yeah, because no other university has ever done something as stupid as this. Oh, wait... UK disputes trademark of 'Kentucky' on Kentucky moonshine distillery's T-shirts | Lexington Herald-Leader A) I'm not a UK guy. B) I'd hardly call this the first (or 12th) example of THE Ohio State University exhibiting narcissistic behavior.
November 18, 201510 yr The level of narcissism that oozes out of THE Ohio State University has no bounds. I have more respect for the late great Benny Binion (Founder of the Horseshoe) than anyone from that University to the North.
November 18, 201510 yr Will they be suing UC next? Or did that have something to do with why "The Shoemaker Center" fell out of favor a decade ago — perhaps a "cease and desist" letter from Columbus?
November 18, 201510 yr It sounds over the top but I understand protecting a trademark from another business. I probably wouldn't pursue it but have no problem with OSU. I doubt very much if they're really competing with each other but these things are often pursued just to put it out there in case other businesses are of a mind to use the trademark.
November 18, 201510 yr What a joke. And people wonder why the dollar symble isn't allowed when referencing OSU on this site lol.
