Jimmy Buffett Tiger Blocks Charlie Sheen – Trademarks Tiger Blood Name

Friday, March 18, 2011

You know Jimmy Buffett. Laid back, steel drums, music from paradise, margaritas…

Well, it appears Buffett’s blood may also contain some fast acting entrepreneurial spirit because he has just filed papers with the United States Patent and Trademark Office to trademark the name “Tiger Blood” for use with his own products.

Buffett’s Company, “Margaritaville Enterprises LLC” disclosed in their filing that they plan to use the name for energy drinks and vodka products. How original.

As we all have come to know over the last month, “Tiger Blood” is the code word Charlie Sheen invented to help describe his world of Vatican Assassins and Warlock drive.

The real kicker? If Buffett is successful, then Charlie Sheen won’t ever be able to use the word “Tiger Blood” with any of his products without paying a huge licensing fee to Buffett.

I’m not sure I’d want to make Charlie mad right now, but you got to think he is none too happy with this development.

No word yet from Sheen’s camp… or his Goddesses.
