Fox411 Chains...you really need better advisers🤦‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️

Fox411 Wait that’s not Adam Sandler?

Fox411 What's $10m to Escobar family? Can ocean ever get dry?

Fox411 😂 that's what happens when you try to use another culture's shit instead of your own. Show some creativity. Naming a business is not like picking a rap name. But what should we expect from a guy who told people to call him Titty Boy. 🤦🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

Fox411 Did he not see this coming lol

Fox411 Compañía familiar? Me imagino de donde viene el capital de la empresa

Fox411 Ok

Fox411 Ayyya.

Fox411 Not smart lol

Fox411 I'd change the name without hesitation. My bad🤷‍♂️

Fox411 Doesn’t sound like the strongest case to me. The family doesn’t have a monopoly on the name Escobar. It’s not like their the only Escobar’s on the planet. Any association or reference to Pablo is inferred..which makes it sound circumstantial. Not that I’m a lawyer. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Fox411 Pablo Escobar's family should be happy they aren't in a f*ck!ng prison cell TOGETHER right now. Move a long fools, we got no time for your nonsense. The empire is on fire.
