ANTHRAX Sued Over Ugly Hanukkah Sweater

Anthrax is being sued over their Ugly Hanukkah Sweater, reports Tresa Baldas of Detroit Free Press.

In a unique copyright infringement lawsuit  filed in U.S. District Court, a Detroit artist and businessman is suing Anthrax and others for at least $1 million in damages, claiming his whimsical blue-and-white Happy Hanukkah design is showing up on Anthrax sweatshirts, which are being sold for $28.99 on a website called Rockabilia.

The website is being sued, too, along with the merchandiser who supplied the corny crewnecks, which appeared in a 2015 Twitter post that is now being used as Exhibit 3 in the lawsuit. It shows a man in a long pointy beard sporting the Anthrax Happy Hanukkah sweatshirt, while making rocker hand gestures. Comments include: "Limited edition of only 300! Get em by Dec. 6" and "keep the Jewish metal spirit."
