We’ve come a long way from April 1, 2017, until now, with the steady drumbeat — and ads galore — in preparation for the upcoming Super Bowl LII in downtown Minneapolis:
As the NFL promotes use of the SBLII hashtag, it is preparing to do battle, or at least stand in the way, of another hashtag mark that the USPTO published for opposition: #HereWeGo.
Turns out, the NFL and the Pittsburgh Steelers appear to be concerned with Jennifer Menichini’s application to federally register #HereWeGo for a variety of clothing items.
I’m guessing that the Steelers believe they have standing to try and block registration of Menichini’s claimed mark based on the Steeler’s fight song, apparently called “Here We Go.”
Stay tuned to see whether this results in a formal trademark opposition, as the deadline for the NFL and Steelers is currently the day before Super Bowl LII: February 3, 2018.
