*FUNSerial 74296991 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: Southwestern Bell Mobile Systems, Inc.
Class 041 - Education & Entertainment
Filed Jul 21, 1992
The record shows that *FUN is an abandoned service mark – the application was filed by Southwestern Bell Mobile Systems, Inc. on July 21 1992, but the USPTO cancelled it on March 31 1994 because no Statement of Use or timely extension was filed after the Notice of Allowance. The only goods listed are “information services; namely, providing access to information about upcoming entertainment events” in International Class 041, so a similar name used for anything that helps people find entertainment listings would be the closest area of concern. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the word *FUN, only over the specific service described. This was a Principal Register filing, and the prosecution history shows the mark moved from approval for publication to a required Statement of Use, then to abandonment when that requirement wasn’t met. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so no enforcement signals appear. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan to offer a comparable entertainment‑information service.
Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.
The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
