Gordon Bombay Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 I'm with the complainant on this one. this is sarcasm 2 3 Quote
Bdd127 Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 So a small attraction in California, that up until this point had no issues with the name "mystic" wants to file a complaint now? Ridiculous. There's no way this is gonna get anywhere. 2 Quote
Benjamin22 Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 Ridiculous, the word Mystic is incredibly generic. Wonder what straw he’s going to reach for next. 1 Quote
ohiocoasterfan Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 Mystic Morons seems appropriate 4 2 Quote
bjcolglazier Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 There's not many, but there are people who make a living filing lawsuits. Win a few, lose a few, and hope to "settle" as many as possible. Looks to me that's exactly what's going on here. "Pay me, and my case against your big company goes away." 3 Quote

pkiknex25 Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 This place also went after Silver Dollar City for their new Mystic River Falls. https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/california/articles/2019-10-28/california-man-sues-over-missouri-amusement-park-ride-name 1 Quote
Joshua Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 The Candy Crush people tried to do this a few years back with the word "Saga." Quote

flightoffear1996 Posted November 7, 2019 Author Posted November 7, 2019 I believe I heard on Coaster Radio daily Podcast today that Silverdollar City is filing a lawsuit against this guy. 1 Quote
LuckyluvsKI Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 pretty sure the Hollywood casino will also go after him, at the very least they have the funding to protect their interests names included. Cedar Fair the same. he probably is just trying to play the pay me and ill go away game. Pretty big gamble if you ask me. especially going after multi million dollar corps with matching lawyer power to boot. the win some probably depends on how much they think copy cats will follow and or the care of just making it go away over the hassle of proving hes just an idiot too.

ThrillKingsFitzy Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 This is stupid. The guy lives in California for goodness sakes! I don't think any Californian's are going to drive a total of two days just to ride a good wooden coaster in Ohio. Everyone except enthusiasts to be more specific. And Missouri is pretty far away too. Not even coaster enthusiasts care about Mystic River Falls that much! Quote

Browntggrr Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 If he has a valid lawsuit, I wonder if Mystic Pizza (est. 1973) has one against him too? https://www.tripsavvy.com/mystic-pizza-connecticuts-most-famous-pizzeria-1600235 Quote
