Superdawg Gets Litigious

Remember the Roscoe's/Rosscoe's House of Chicken and Waffles kerfuffle from last year that had readers quoting lines from "Coming to America?" Looks like we're about to see it again, only with Superdawg in the role of plaintiff.
Superdawg has filed a lawsuit against a Greewnich Village hot dog joint, claiming that Danny Omari's use of "SuperDog" was grounds for trademark infringement. Superdawg co-owner Scott Berman, who's also the restaurant's general counsel, wasn't happy with Omari's decision to alter his restaurant to "Super Hot Dog."
All we know is that we're hitting up Omari's shop the next time we're in New York.
