Hmmmm where have we seen that slogan before..... For some reason it makes me think of drinking..... Nah there's no way the state would be dumb enough to link themselves to a slogan from a liquor company..... but wait....

Yeah, that cost the state $50,000 to do. WTF. They think that will bring business into the state. It should say "Wisconsin: Taxed, and we mean it". Someone should tell Bacardi the state stole their slogan.

what ad agency doesn't check for a trademark when pitching a new slogan? Did we hire some kid in his basement to come up with this shit? I think we ought to shake him down for our 50k, then track down the feeble minded douche in madison that hired him and kick his ass too.

I think "drink like you mean it" really would've been more appropriate.

Actually, I read yesterday that indeed Bacardi and a SLEW of people and companies including some personal trainer that have copyrighted or have been using that very same slogan are all preparing lawsuits lol.

I see this as a huge waste of money not just the whole damn slogan and campaign costs but Wisconsin wasting a bunch of our taxpayer money defending lawsuits now...

Wisconsin should not have to be the one defending the lawsuit. It should be the less than competent ad agency the state paid to make the slogan. They should of done there homework and checked copyrighting.
