When my buddies talk about "The Shoe," I assume they are talking about going to Cleveland to gamble. I guess it is the same in Cincinnati.

This is old news. Like 3-4 months old I believe.

Yeah, nobody cared then either.

Just saw the article last week. Any update on legal battle?

 

[Michael Bluth]

I've only ever called it "The Casino" when discussing whether or not to go there

Arm and a leg?

The casino objects to OSU using the word "The" before its name. They're even now.

Lmao

The same Ohio State that wanted to trademark " The."

Ohio State can't trademark the word "the," patent office says

The university uses "THE" on its clothing, but the trademark office said the word is "merely ... decorative"

What is the problem with "The Shoe", great name.

Nike sponsorship. Their shoes are made by slaves which is racist
