The owners of Barcade have sent a cease and desist letter to the proprietors of Up-Down, a bar in Des Moines, Iowa. The concept is the same as Barcade, but that's not the problem. Apparently they've been calling their place a "barcade" and have emblazoned that term on all sorts of marketing materials and in the press, and Barcade's lawyers want them to stop doing that.
