The Royal Flush of chains:  Jack In The Box, Dairy Queen, Burger King, and Ace Hardware.  Maybe they should all join forces and call the parent company: "Royal Flush"

There is a Burger Queen restaurant, in Lakeview, Oregon. It doesn't seem to be part of a chain, or affiliated with any other Burger Queens that may be out there.

If you drive on US-59 in a small town of Louise, Texas (between Victoria and Houston), there is an independent place there called "Dairy King" but it's a name of a convenience store, the fast food restaurant is actually a Chester's Chicken.

We're so far south that we're not even considered "The South"

Similarly; Whataburger should merge with Lotaburger and form Whatalotaburger

Taco Bell should merge with McDonald's and call it Ron McDon's Taco Bell.
Might as well face it, pooing is cool

I remember when there was a Dairy King in Last Chance, CO.  I'm trying to remember what they called their version of a Blizzard, but it's escaping me at the moment.

You still need a 10 to form a royal flush. Oklahoma has a chain of gyms called 10Gym, but I don't know if that really fits with the others thematically...

I will create a restaurant along A-10 called Casse-Croûte 10.

There is (or used to be) a small chain called Burger Girl in the Metroplex.The most prominent store (to me) in Frisco next to Toyota Stadium didn't last. There was one in McKinney and one in Uptown Dallas too.

There is an unrelated Burger Girl Diner in Louisville. Ironically enough.

There's also the completely unrelated chains of Jack in the Box and Jack's, the latter of which is a local-ish fried chicken jain that operates primarily in Alabama (and is based in Birmingham) with a fair amount of locations in the surrounding states.
AFAIK, Jack's and Jack in the Box do not operate where the other operates.

Tongue in cheek: I have no idea what country you're talking about.

Edit: I figured it out: I can't believe they don't have any parking lots in France

I always thought the soccer team Louisville FC missed a marketing opportunity by not naming themselves Kentucky FC instead.
