Wyoming to Breckenridge: "Hands off our logo"
The cowboy logo at Breckenridge public schools is facing its final roundup. The western Minnesota school district has decided to phase out the logo rather than fight a trademark infringement accusation by the state of Wyoming.
Officials in Cheyenne demanded that Breckenridge no longer use the distinctive bucking horse and rider logo, which is used as a symbol for the state of Wyoming as well as the University of Wyoming Cowboys.
All Things Considered host Steven John talked to Breckenridge superintendent David Pace about the controversy.
