U.K. Supreme Court declared them a potato chip and they had to pay $150 million in taxes.
In 2008, they originally won that case but when it went to the high cost, the Lord Justice ruled against them. On a side note, according to a U of C research, pringles have been found to aid the removal if toxins fro the human body. I love Pringles.

Lol so over the pond they are chips. That's crazy.

A wood chip man, not a freaking potato chip! Nobody walks into a room with a potato chip on his shoulder and dares anyone to knock it off....unless it's a Funyun.

Browns not playing with a chip on his shoulder, he's playing with a potato chip on his shoulder, maybe be related to the Alaskan Bush People.

I had to look up the meaning....

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Chip on his Shoulder

This has gotten lost in all the false meanings. A chip on his shoulder comes from the days when there was a formal declaration for a fight, punch-up etc. When a person disagreed strongly with someone over a personal belief, they would place a chip of wood on their shoulder and dare the other to knock it off. Once the other person did this signaled the beginning of the fight and thus punches were thrown. Examples of this can be seen in old British movies circa 1930-1950's.

I've spent more time on this than I need to.

I would have never ever guessed a chip of wood!

189 was his draft slot in the 6th.
I was wondering what 189 meant, I guess I didn't read into the thread far enough. I think it wold have been cooler if he left the potato chip off and just had 189 on his shoulder.

Looks like he let a novice artist do that.. the 189 is just kinda thrown on there and is out of alignment. I like the tongue in cheek potato chip on the shoulder though...
