not cool, Auburn


Apr 23, 2013, 1:57 PM

a rendering of Auburn's renovation of Toomer's Corner. You're putting something there that's not yours.

I have a feeling they might get a letter form the Clemson lawyers.

Look, that's just some design firm snagging a paw from the


Apr 23, 2013, 3:30 PM

internet and throwing it on their presentation. It's not what the final design will look like (unfortunately for Auburn, because wow...the one they have now is ridiculous).

Anyway, if they were planning on using the paw, I wouldn't even worry about the lawyers. I'd have Barker write a letter to their president saying that we appreciate them incorporating a symbol of our current ownership of their university into their design. I would Carbon Copy ESPN.

that's just a paw left over from the #### stomping we put on them. They are honoring us.

Maybe we should have them put in a tombstone? 2012 Clemson 26 Auburn 19

I believe that paw is already there. It has been there for awhile.

And the paw in its current rendering looks to have been drawn by about a 1st grader.

Apr 23, 2013, 3:06 PM

I'm 99% sure that Clemson owns the paw and all rights to it.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Clemson trademarked the Paw


Apr 23, 2013, 3:09 PM

It's ours. If we wanted, we could go after every last high school in the country that uses it... And we'd win a cease-and-desist from all of them. Not that we'd do that, but you get my point.

badge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Is Henderson Advertising out of business?


Apr 23, 2013, 3:10 PM [ in reply to The Paw is intellectual property of Henderson Advertising ]

What are the legal restrictions of using the paw now? I assume Clemson still has some control over it.

Re: The Paw is intellectual property of Henderson Advertising

1. Henderson Adv. never owned the trademark. The tiger paw was created by one of their graphic designers.
2. Clemson didn't get the trademark right away, so they are limited in their protection. I believe they can only protect against exact replication and use that specifically identifies it w/ Clemson Univ.
3. Therefore any school is able to make use of a tiger paw so long as they don't use an exact copy of Clemson's.
4. Auburn already has a tiger paw at the Toomers intersection.

I thought the only trademark was the "hook" and the angle

afterall its a cast of a real tigers paw. Kinda hard to claim that.

The only paw I found registered to Clemson is here:
http://tmsearch.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4803:yjmg96.8.18

The patent office makes you limit the goods the patent applies to. If this is the only one I don't think it can stop someone from painting it on a street.

You do not need to register to obtain copyright/trademark


Apr 24, 2013, 11:45 AM

protection. Although you would want to register for certain benefits.

Now if you don't enforce your trademark, you lose it. It would be an interesting case in litigation if Clemson were to go after Auburn for trademark infringement on the Paw.
