Shark in all places...

Vu à Las Végas sur une enseigne d'un magasin de vêtements de sport dont la marque (déposée!) est le nom d'un ancien golfeur de classe internationale, quelque chose comme "Grog Normal"...

Seen in Las Vegas on a sign of a sportswear shop which brand (déposée!) is the name of a former world-class golfer, something like "Grog Normal" ...

"Grog Normal"???
I fear you may have had a lapse in memory recall. Greg Norman is the name of the golfer in question. The link takes you to his official site, and that logo is seen there. Like many golfers he did frequent the 19th hole but "grog normal"? His career and golfing business would not attest to that. [Greg Norman - Great White Shark from Qld, Australia]

Hi, Squeeky,

It's just a "French joke", a pun like to take an hot drink when you catch a cold, not possible to translate, I think in English...Sorry. :??: ;)

I know Greg Norman, of course, but in this case, It's the name for a clothing line with trademark... :p

Regards, Marco.

Ah.
I appreciate the explanation, I am quite aware of several instances where things are not able to be translated (idioms probably best describes that).

That clothing line, as in my link, is related to Greg.

I have some shirts from this brand and they're actually pretty comfortable.
