“What does Robbie Keane smell like?”, I’ve often wondered to myself while watching the great man in action. I’d say he smells lovely. Musky, manly, with a hint of grass after a forward roll goal celebration. Anyway, you may soon be able to smell just like him because his UK based promotions company has just applied to register the name “Robbie Keane” as a Europe Wide Trade Mark: And what does he plan on using his name for? Glad you asked! Look at the possibilities:

Eau de Robbie
A Robbie Keyring
A Robbie Keane Moneybox
A Robbie Keane blank video tape! (Shut up and take my money!)
A Robbie Keane Record Token Card
A Robbie Keane Doll
A Robbie Keane deck of cards
