Cracker Barrel appears determined to alienate every last conservative customer as it doubles down on wokeness. This time, it’s over their classic game.
As TGP readers may know, Cracker Barrel has a legendary peg game on all the restaurant’s tables. Previously, the game trolled players who had trouble in classic Southern style: “Leave only one—you’re a genius. Leave two, and you’re purty smart. Leave three, and you’re just plain dumb. Leave four or mor’n, and you’re just plain eg-no-ra-moose.”
Now, the game has been altered so as not to hurt the feelings of any snowflake. Now, Fox News reveals the message reads as follows when a player keeps stumbling:
“Don’t be embarassed, try again!”
In addition to the new PC language, people in the company apparently failed English in grade school. How embarrassing (this is the correct spelling).
A Cracker Barrel spokesperson, though, told Country Living that nothing has really changed despite the woke message.
“The peg game is still the same peg game our guests have known and loved for years, and some may look visually different now, but the rules and fun remain completely unchanged,” the spokesperson said.
Social media users erupted in anger and amusement upon learning about Cracker Barrel’s latest stupid decision. They also noticed the misspelled word.
In Cracker Barrel’s process of rebranding from old-timey to modern old-timey and killing their business, they woke-ified the peg game to minimize hurt feelings of those who don’t do so well. Did they actually misspell a key word? pic.twitter.com/WYpeOCGQCN

I will NEVER eat here again! Full stop. Sometimes I would just go into the gift shop to buy gifts for baby and wedding showers. Absolutely never again. https://t.co/7YAjNPE1XQ

Cracker Barrel’s gone soft with this woke peg game nonsense can’t even handle a little friendly jab anymore! This is why I’m done eating there; they’re just pandering to feelings over fun.
Hope they learn quick before they lose more customers like me— Caroline (@car_oline2001) August 26, 2025

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Cracker Barrel’s woke CEO Julie Felss Masino sparked a social media uproar after making an infuriating change to an iconic part of the restaurant chain.
Last Tuesday, the company announced that it was replacing its 47-year-old logo as part of an attempted $700 million rebrand. The old logo shows the restaurant name next to a man sitting on a chair and leaning on a barrel.
Now, the only thing left is the name. No more man and barrel.
