The names of particular fonts may be protected by a trademark. This is the weakest form of protection because only the font name itself is being protected. For example, the letters that make up the trademarked font Palatino can be copied but the name must be changed.

When I was a student and we tried to make t-shirts for our club, we couldn't use the "geaux" font without permission from the university... which btw was more than we could afford.

Look up the peppermint font. That's the font they used. It's very similar to the Geaux font but not quite.
This. Put away the pitchforks.

I'm not rustled. I thought it was interesting and shared it with others that I believed would find it interesting.

You're correct. Only the name can be protected. Surprising to say the least.

probably not an issue ... especially since they are not a school and in competition.
Also, the "U" is not the same....just a similar font

funny!
Don't joke though. With Joe Alleva running things, we will need every dime to stay in the black.
What a great job he's done with our coaches contracts, huh? (Sarcasm)

That is the SL Panzerkardinal font. It has been around since way before the geaux font. I would use it before I acquired the geaux font to make LSU logos by flipping the U.
