Antler Confusion

This is old news to us but I thought it worth sharing with the farmers and coffee drinkers in our lives.

Aidan’s quite into John Deere tractors after receiving a few related toys for Christmas. Shortly after moving up to Minnesota, he kept shouting out “John Deere!” as we moved about running errands. We were a bit confused seeing no tractors or implement dealerships in the area.

We finally solved the mystery…



It seems there is enough similarity between the logos of John Deere and the Caribou Coffee chain to warrant some confusion when driving by at 40 miles and hour.

Ha! That's funny. I wonder if Caribou Coffee is hoping to rake in the lucrative farmer demographic?

Caribou had best look out, John Deere enthusiastically protects their trademarks...
