Call of DooDee

Let's hear it for one of Illinois' very own for taking on the big boys. From Yahoo! News...
Call of Duty is far and away one of, if not the biggest and most well known video game franchises to ever exist. It has a global reach with millions of players, a marketing budget akin to that of a major summer blockbuster, and it usually packs some star power with recognizable celebrities starring in the game's campaign and zombies mode.

With that said, it should come as no surprise that Call of Duty publisher Activision is less than happy that a dog poop cleaning service is somewhat mocking their flagship series. Over the summer, an Illinois citizen filed a trademark for their new dog waste removal service known as "Call of DooDee".
The Call of Duty people are still fighting it, so for now, we don't know if the Call of DooDee people will get to keep that name. I know who I'm rooting for.
