Yes, indeed!
The NFL is has warned several Louisiana T-shirt shops that are selling merchandise bearing the slogan “Who Dat?” and New Orleans iconic fleur de lis on it that they own the trademark, so it is sending out cease and desist letter to merchandisers. It now wants the unlicensed T-shirts and merchandise out of the stores ahead of the Super Bowl finals. ?Who Dat? is the unofficial chant song of the fans of the New Orleans Saints. The chant goes: “Who dat? Who dat? Who dat say dey gonna beat dem Saints? Who dat? Who dat?” It has become integral to team’s success, and the legion of the Saints fans now call themselves the “Who Dat Nation.”??
NFL – get real, “Who Dat?” and fleur de lis belong to the people of New Orleans. Come up with your own slogan.
I spoke with a friend who was driving to work this morning and heard on the call-in radio a woman who said, “We better move quick to copyright ‘Yes, Indeed!'”
