Luke Littler May Delay Bar Opening Over Trademark

Teenage darts champion Luke 'the Nuke' Littler is considering legal action against a new bar in his hometown of Warrington, named 'Nukes Sports Bar'. The bar, created by Owen Williams, was named through a social media poll and uses Littler's trademarked nickname and associated colors for branding, leading to a potential trademark infringement. Littler, who trademarked 'the Nuke' following his rapid rise to fame, has his legal team demanding the bar cease using the trademarked name by February 21, 2025. Williams, who spent £5,000 on branding and plans to sell affordable pints, hopes for leniency, claiming that the naming was intended as a tribute to Littler's success. The bar's Facebook post pleads with Littler to reconsider, suggesting the legal actions are not directly from Littler himself but his legal team. The situation remains unresolved, and the opening of the bar may be delayed if the issue persists.
