Talk about ridiculous... apparently, no one is allowed to use the word "monster" according to this company...
<snip>
Monster Cable Products of Brisbane filed suit in Sacramento federal court this week against the owners of Monster Mini Golf in Rancho Cordova along with the Rhode Island woman who sells Monster Mini Golf franchises.
In its trademark infringement suit, Monster Cable claims the miniature golf courses "are likely to cause confusion."
Monster Cable has a history of aggressive trademark protection. According to published reports, the company has sued the Discovery Channel over its "Monster Garage" series, has sued Disney over the film "Monsters, Inc." and has even sued the Boston Red Sox over the left field wall known as the "Green Monster."
