So the owner of the chain sued them for having a similar name? Is this a McDonalds vs. McDowell’s situation?

More McDonald's vs. McDonald's. The names were identical.

My understanding is that there was a gentleman's agreement for the BR restaurant to use the name because they were far enough away from the other restaurant group that the owners of the other group were okay with it... until they weren't. Then, the only thing that counted was what was written down on paper: the trademark filing for the name and the cease and desist letter.

You're either part of the problem or part of the solution.

These O'Morans are choosing to be the former.

Just thought it was a way to join festivities. Irish people were friends with Anglo Saxons at Disney

“They got the Golden Arches, mine is the Golden Arcs. They got the Big Mac, I got the Big Mick. We both got two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles and onions, but their buns have sesame seeds. My buns have no seeds.”

1. You’re a terrible poster.

2. It’s honestly not the worst idea - St Patrick was actually beloved to be born in Great Britain (Brittania) and his parents are both from Italy.

Black 47: The Famine on film – it’s only taken 170 years

‘Black 47’, Lance Daly’s film that addresses one of the most traumatic periods in Irish history, is a story that has barely registered on the big screen before

“We couldn’t have asked for better,” Lance Daly tells us amid the bustle of the 68th Berlin Film Festival. “It really is one of the major festivals. They have put it on Friday night in the premiere venue. We have the cast here. So it’s a really good launch for it.”

Yes, it matters that Black 47, Daly’s fine near-western set during the Great Famine, gets its first outing by the Spree. Half a century ago, the festival circuit on the European continent comprised a dizzying whirl of competing events. Many of those jamborees still flourish, but a Big Three – Venice, Cannes and Berlin – now boss the rest when it comes to world premieres. ...

They do nothing for St. Patrick's Day because they are The Londoner, not The Dubliner.
