AndyK Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I was in GF earlier this month for work, driving by Dagwoods and noticed that they changed their name. What's the story with that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCM Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I was in GF earlier this month for work, driving by Dagwoods and noticed that they changed their name. What's the story with that? I believe the restaurant has changed owners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Csonked Out Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Rumor has it that the previous owner at one time was a huge supporter of UND hockey, late last year he had a falling out with REA and the alumni association over something (not quite sure what). At that point he stopped doing the dagwoods bus to the games, and has since sold the restaraunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxMeNow Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 as I understand it...King Features Syndicate (owner of the Blondie Comic Strip) didn't have a problem with a local restaurant using their characters UNTIL they decided to start a chain of Dagwood Sub shops. The local place would have had to become a subshop to keep using the name so they decided to change... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
star2city Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Perhaps we should ask "The Walrus", a regular poster on this board. If I'm not mistaken, he may know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The owners of the Blondie Comic Strip have Started a National Change of Dagwoods Sub Shops...True The New Owners Decided a Name change was a wise move..

UNDGuy Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 One of the new owners is married to an ex-sioux basketball player. New name, fresh start, new feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
