How much to play "Eye of the Tiger?" $25,000, CHUMP!

In a rare example of copyright being enforced in court, with punitive damages, the composer of "Eye of the Tiger" (the Survivor song synonymous with the "Rocky" movie franchise) got $25,000 off THIS redneck asshole on the left.

If you're from out of town, you probably don't know who Mike Huckabee is.

He became governor of Arkansas, long after Bill Clinton moved on to the presidency. Mostly known for being a fat slob, and for liking to go hunting and shooting birds out of the sky, he lost some weight and tried to push himself as a presidential candidate.

Dubya Bush was among many to easily step in front of him. Huckabee seemed washed up, but he tried again last year. When Donald Trump distanced himself from the crowded pack, hack Huckabee was among the first to fold.

But before he did, he tried to present himself as THE redneck candidate. He came out in favor of this fat bitch Davis, a county clerk who had refused to give a marriage license to a gay couple, and was willing to go to jail (for a day or two) because of her "religious beliefs."

Eventually the gay couple were married by another clerk, Fat Bitch got out of jail, and Huckabee came out to cheer her, while the heroic "Eye of the Tiger" blasted on the stereo speakers and the crowd of rednecks cheered.

Except, no, he had not secured permission to play the song.

And, no, his offer to settle later, for a "reasonable" price, was rejected.

And, most remarkably, the courts ordered him to pay an incredibly large settlement, perhaps because TV networks picked up the event and broadcast Huckabee's misuse of the music.

You win one, you lose thousands. But, let's immortalize this rare victory for copyright!
