10. And mcdonalds was fine with the event

After all, it went on for three years. Their objection is to the applications by McFest, LLC to trademark that name. Anyone can file an objection to a trademark application. The company (hm, why isn't it a 501(c)3 instead of a for profit LLC?) is spending the money to fight for a trademark to prevent others from using it. McD's is fighting to keep the term open. Why is a small, supposedly charitible for-profit company spending money on a trademark fight?
