Head Coral-Reefer Jimmy Buffett might be a laid back guy, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t one of the smartest businessmen in music. Buffett spotted an ad by The Walking Company that used his trademarked slogan “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere” and immediately informed the board of his company urging them to take action. Margaritaville Enterprises LLC. owns the rights to the term “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere” which originated in the duet with Alan Jackson of the same name which went on to be the #1 country song of 2003. “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere” has become a wide spread catch phrase in the public and is still one of the most popular cell phone ring tones today. Score one more for the Jimmy Buffett empire!
