Remember the kerfuffle a few weeks ago about Tennessee’s hideous new $46,000 logo? Gov. Haslam said we needed it for “uniformity of messaging” or some such BS.
Well, our new logo was rejected by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office:
According to the federal office, the art was “primarily geographically descriptive,” which was against the rules.
You’d think for $46,000 someone would have known the rules.
FAIL.
