Would you think a bottle of bourbon featuring John Wayne's photo, signature, and the word Duke, with Wayne carrying a shotgun was a licensed product from Duke University? Apparently Duke University thinks you might get confused. The article It's The Duke vs. Duke in trademark dispute delves into Duke University's efforts to restrict John Wayne Enterprises from selling licensed products (including bourbon) that use the word "Duke". Personally, I think the only person who might get confused about the "Duke" bourbon would be a Duke University freshman who has had too much of the bourbon. To quote "Duke" - "Life's hard. It's even harder when you're stupid". |
