00:07remember uh let's talk about bucky's for a minute apparently big beaver is a bastard yeah you know
00:15so we told you when we talked about this earlier this week when we first covered the story because
00:19i'm going to get to the fact that they're suing another store in just a moment but um john oliver
00:24on last week tonight he kind of brought this up the company has a history of doing this
00:29they go after people that are even kind of similar to their logo or name they've been it's been a
00:36thing that bucky's has done for years their legal team will look it's like they search out stores
00:42right and then try and sue them and besides this one in ohio another one that's going on right now
00:49is in um atlanta they have a teddy bear i don't this one doesn't even make sense called teddy's
00:56market and has a teddy bear as a logo that looks nothing like bucky but they're suing them too
01:01he's at a gas station is really big and huge and like it's like a mall it's kind of hard
01:07to get
01:07confused with this place right landon ginn shops at teddy's market all the time it's a small business
01:13in canton with just one other location and a third on the way he says there's no way he'd ever
01:19confuse
01:19the canton-based gas station with the texas-based convenience store giant bucky's but a lawsuit
01:25filed by bucky's claims the logos and the names are so similar that they could create a likelihood
01:31of confusion that lawsuit claims a number of trademark infringements including that both logos
01:37are cartoonish both arbitrarily wearing hats that they both have white highlights on their eyes and
01:43nose and that both characters show a glimpse of a red or pink tongue customer kaylee jordan says she
01:49doesn't see it the nose has some white on it and the bucky's beaver has white on it there's a
01:55baseball cap
01:56on each so do you think that there are certain things that are kind of in common here no the
02:03lawsuit
02:03claims the name teddies is also at issue with alleged similarities to the bucky's name in a number of ways
02:10including that they are both two syllables with a hard consonant sound and that both end in the sound
02:16ease you wouldn't be confused you can't end in a knee sound no ma'am no not at all yeah
02:22that's i just
02:23think it is crazy though that they're you know doing that lawsuit for them because at this i don't see
02:29the resemblance at all the owner of teddy's market kayran ahuja tells me he created teddy's market and the
02:35logo back in 2024 to add some fun to their gas station he says he was surprised that bucky's would
02:41come after them and admits there's a lot of pressure when it's a big company like bucky's
02:46with all their resources he says they're not backing down and their customers tell us they will back
02:53them through this all because they don't think this bear and this beaver look much alike at all i
02:59love them both huge bucky's fan but i don't agree that it looks like a bucky it's a different animal
03:08different name don't know if i follow uh follow that i don't know man two syllables like that's wild
03:16yes just because it has the same like amount of letters well and then also an ending in like an
03:22e
03:22sound you know yeah teddies bucky's they weren't even thinking about bucky's no no no you better
03:29look at other morning shows and see how many syllables a lot of different i have i sued quite
03:35a few oh i said that band that was going as dave and chuck the band shut them right down
03:40shut them
03:41right down he did i did he did nice they were a facebook band little cease and desist okay yeah
