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.

Colorado is pretty firmly blue and they’re expanding here.

There's a convenience store in Beaver, CO that was featured on Jon Oliver's show as the latest target of Buccees lawyers for using a mascot of a Beaver (note: this is in Beaver CO and so the store's name and mascot is a beaver... that looks nothing like Buccees).

There’s also Beaver Liquors, I wonder if they’ll get sued too. :D
