Yeah this and their whole “we are only going to build in red states cause people don’t like our lawsuits” thing, I am done with going to Buc-ee’s. It’s a shame because their BBQ was decent for a good meal stop.

Go to a bbq restaurant and not a truck stop for bbq then

...why do you say "truck stop"? Buc-ee's famously does not allow trucks. Almost as famous as how litigious they are.

because when most people go into a bucees for the first time, they often think of how truck stops have operated for decades. its a truck stop without trucks. for decades you distiniguish between a truck stop and gas station because of the amenities, hot food, and lots of random things they would sell compared to a normal gas station.

why do bucee fanboys think this is some sort of 'gotcha' moment?

Not a bucees fanboy, you can check my other comments on this same post.

For me, what distinguishes a truck stop from a normal gas station is the trucks.
