Jeez there's not much traffic here...I haven't posted on the red tail axolotl thread since December and it's still the newest thread.

My support for monster energy is done. Prime example of Big Corp bullies trying to make easy money by picking on a strong community. CONGRATS MFK !!!!!!!! release some shirts so I can show even more support (preferabbly one with an arowana)

The way I understood it this wasnt even about money. They only wanted MFK to stop using the monster name and logo.....scumbags!

As many of you guys know I have been battling my MonsterFishKeepers trademark with Monster Energy since 2014. As of today I can say I have beaten the monster!

Monster Energy now has a ruling against its ludicrous and overreaching argument that it owns the word “Monster." Hope this ruling will help the hundreds of other small businesses being bullied by them.

I want to thank Eve B, Suffolk University, Boston University and my good friend KP Devlin.

Remember friends don't let friends drink Monster Energy!

Does anyone drink that garbage anyways?

Geez, I learned today that Monster stock is up 60,000% since 2000, a better investment than Amazon or Google:

Monster stock rally

Who would have thought?

That's an impressive if unfortunate fact imho, but also doesn't change the other fact they still got their big corporate a**es handed back to them in court by (a comparatively tiny) MFK, just saying.

Also, as a new report suggests, their future might not be looking quite so energetic:

Why Tiger Woods's Masters win will do nothing for Monster Beverage

Monster Beverage is struggling and even brand spokesman Tiger Woods may not be able to save it.

And yes they did get a temporary boost thru ad on Tiger's bag, but their stocks have slid almost 20% in recent weeks.

Drink "Bang" instead if anyone is into those kind of drinks (never tried them myself to be honest, I'm too hyperactive as it is lol).
