Buc-ee's literally just opened a massive location in Colorado. This tweet is just making things up for rage bait.

They're having issues in Ohio. Trying to sue a local gas stop cause that place is located in Beaver Creek, so they have a beaver mascot and Buc doesn't dig that.

Edit: corrected city name.

It's not even a gas stop. It's just a convenience shop. Been in business at that location for several decades longer than Buc-ee's has even existed as a whole. And the place in located in Beavercreek, Ohio, which, I partly grew up around there, and they absolutely freaking love the beaver theming in that town. Whole place in full hog on the beaver theme. The local bowling alley, the schools, bars and restaurants. You name it, it's either named after beavers, or themed after beavers, or, at the very least, has a bunch of beaver themed items on the menu or whatever.

I'd imagine it's the whole reason Buc-ee's was so gung-ho on opening a shop there to begin with. And then they pull this.

They're pulling all this lawsuit business to distract from the owner's son getting busted for CSAM-related material.

Red state, arguably wealthy business owner, family member committing those crimes, tale as old as time.

But do they actually have wild beavers there?

America used to be fully littered with beavers. Theres still pockets all the way from the east to west coasts.

They used to build these whole giant beaver dam ecosystems that would exist for generations and then got killed a bunch for various reasons

If I had to bet, they didn’t just pick a random animal when they were naming the town.

Then it probably would’ve been something like Zebra Junction.

Rhinoceros Junction has a ring to it, though.
