I'm no lawyer so I have no idea if he'd have a case, all I know is that they're nowhere near the greatness of the real bucees

Bucky's is actually an older corporation than Bucee's.

How I read it too

1) beaver, chicken, and alligator are not even in the same animal families, bad form!

2). Irv's is garbage. I was so excited when it opened becuase I needed a tertiary poo stop on the way to Freeport, but alas, the amenities were garbage.

Protecting branding with large business like Bucee's is just another way to not only protect itself and generate money, is also will actively beat down competition. It's just part of making money. Bucee's is a money maker. It's a nasty moneymaker. People like the owner don't get where they are because they are nice and decent human beings. I shop at bucees, its a cutesy gimmicky place with overpriced fuel, but sometimes, it's easier to just roll through and get diesel and be on my way.

I'm pretty sure it is no secret now, or in the past, that bucees legal team is aggressive and will destroy a business if it has to, regardless of how frivolous it's claims are.

More importantly, based on how it frames lawsuits, Bucees clearly thinks it's patrons are complete idiots.

I'm looking forward to the outcome. If something this stupid loses, it sets a dangerous precedent. If they win, then it gives other businesses positive feedback to the bully tactics.

tl/dr

I thought I read that Bucky's and Buc-Cees had a deal not to enter each other's territories...but Bucky's decided to move into texas...and got sued by Buc-Cees.

Always seems very cheap to me

Would they be the first empire built on clean ****ters?

Aren't they expanding to Louisiana? There is not currently a clean restroom east of Baytown. Those things are going to be goldmines, if they can keep their quality control from failing in Cajun country. There's a reason everything looks the way it does down there.

They need to install all ceramic walls on the stalls and have ports for water hoses to hose down the entire stall.

Good luck finding workers that will keep to their quality control standards. I hope it works, but am quite doubtful.

Exactly my thoughts.

They were building one in baton rouge but it fell through for some reason.

During the case, which Chicks settled out of court, Bucee's brazenly accused the store of improper use of: "friendly smiling cartoon animals," "the use of a black circle," "the use of a yellow background," "the use of the red-colored cockscomb on the heads of the chickens," "the prominent use of sharply drawn black edges," and "the use of six letters in raised and lowered block font in the name."

Nobody would look of that logo and think of Bucee's

I knew one of the guys that built Chicks and all he talked about was the legal battle they were going through with bucees. He and his family made money on building convenient stores from the ground up and selling before they actually opened. I believe part of the settlement was that Chicks had to change the name/logo before it could be sold.

Though he did say everything about the store is a copy cat from from Bucees, the only thing they could sue on were the small items like "yellow background, red mouth..." or whatever they sued these places on.

Yeah, those people at Buc-ee's are just heartless *******s.

Must be very sad to go through life with that attitude.

Beaver is very litigious. Not surprising.
