💥 Mascot war
An HBO comedian dared a Texas gas station chain to sue him, after it had already sued nearly a dozen companies for having cartoon mascots
John Oliver, host of HBO's Last Week Tonight, devoted a segment to Buc-ee's, the Texas gas station and travel center chain that has filed nearly a dozen trademark lawsuits against companies with cartoon mascots (bears, moose, alligators), and even against businesses whose names end in "-ee's," like Missouri dog shop Barc-ee's. Oliver launched his own parody site, "Buc-Off," selling merchandise featuring a squirrel named Mr. Nutterbutter, whom he described as "everyone's favorite cartoon animal who doesn't sue small businesses."
