The UPI reports that a New Jersey man has hired a lawyer for the potential fight over the planned name of his new bar — Buck Foston’s.
Larry Blatterfein of New Brunswick, a lifelong New York Yankees fan, said the name is “all in fun” and designed to “engender an emotional response,” the Boston Herald reported this week.
However, Blatterfein says that Mayor Jim Cahill, an avowed Red Sox fan, is attempting to prevent the name by withholding a liquor license.
Blatterfein said he has hired a constitutional lawyer for a potential First Amendment court battle.
