Times Square’s Naked Cowboy Sues Blue M&M

mnm.jpg

It’s seems Times Square’s Naked Cowboy – aka Robert Burck – who, at first, thought the video billboard showing a blue M&M dressed like a cowboy was funny now has had second thoughts and is suing Mars $6 million for trademark infringement. Burck thinks the video represents too closely what he does each day in his underwear and would like to see some cash out of the situation.

Does that mean with $6 million in his pocket (if he wins), Burck won’t have to perform for money thereby depriving New Yorkers of an entertainment in institution? Oh the horror! To pass through Times Square and not see the dude in his underwear? That is just wrong. So wrong. We hope he loses. Oh wait, that’s not nice. We hope he wins and heads to Calvin Klein to grab himself some stylish new drawers.
