NFL’s ReggieBush.com Official Site’s Domain Name Drops

Posted on the 18 May 2013 by Worldwide @thedomains

The domain name ReggieBush.com dropped today and was picked up by NameJet.com where it currently at auction.

The domain name had 61 backorders placed on it, and as usual in the cases where famous entertainer or athletes domains drop, we do not report on it until the backorder time closes.

The domain name was the official site of Reggie Bush according to Screenshots.com as recently as 2010.

If you don’t know who Reggie Bush is he is a former Heisman Trophy winner, who later voluntarily forfeited his Heisman Trophy due to sanctions placed on his college USC by the NCAA,  won a Super Bowl with the New Orleans Saints, then played for the Miami Dolphins and now is a member of the Detroit Lions.

The domain name was owned by 691 enterprises, llc. C/O The Agency Sports Management and the administrative contact was Reggie Bush but the email address went to theagencymgmt.com.

Either Reggie ended his relationship with the agency or someone screwed up.

In any event this is another domain in a long line of entertainer/sports figures who have lost their domain for their official site and you can read some other famous people who have lost their domain name here and here and here.

Its also a good lesson for anyone famous or not to hold their domain name in their own name and keep correct and current whois contact info on the domain record.

Of course any buyer needs to be very careful of what they do with the domain name after they acquire it and its always subject to a UDRP claim by Mr. Bush if he wakes up to find his domain gone.
