This news is too important and consequential to post in P&N. It is best shared with the good men (and let's face it, there's scarcely a vagina amongst us) of OT.

Somewhere, shorty is taking a break from much needed target practice to quietly weep and reload.

If I were you, I'd duck!

Guess it was a matter of time until it goes tits up. Was never really an A grade establishment. More like a double D.

I still crave their buffalo chicken sandwich, curly fries, and chocolate mousse cake from time to time. Staples of my high school/college diet.

A proper country, lads.

Twin Peaks seems to be thriving. I've never sat foot in there. Hell, the last time I went to Hooters was a decade ago. I was starving and it was across the street from the Discount Tire I was stuck at.

Restaurant chain Hooters of America filed for bankruptcy in Texas on Monday, seeking to address its $376 million debt by selling all of its company-owned restaurants to a franchise group backed by the company’s founders.

Went to the Hooters in Long Beach last year while we were at a conference. I tried to convince our group to not go there and find someplace else to go. I thought it'd be a bad look for two councilmembers and a bunch of city officials to go to a Hooters for lunch. I was outvoted. The food was a disappointment, and the eye candy was also not very good. First time I'd been to a Hooters in 20+ years.

Last time I was at a Hooters was ~15 years ago with a bunch of schoolgirls :^D

It was a field trip I was chaperoning, and for some reason they wanted to get lunch at hooters. Probably for the risqué thrill. I don't remember much one way or the other. Just a typical chain with different shit nailed to the wall. They're all the same.

Hooters was the meme before memes existed. After the novelty wore off, it was always heading to the graveyard of unknown pets.

I think that i may have gone to one once to meet some current and former coworkers, but this was back when they had just started to be "a thing."

I always thought it was a stupid concept - and that alone was enough to guarantee their initial success.

Nothing says americana better than 10 places all trying to extract your money by doing the exact same thing in close proximity to each other.

She would have killed you if you said "I went in there looking for you."

Haven't been to one since Dec 2008, they actually had kids in the restaurant. The local Hooters looked dead everytime I passed by.
The Twin Peaks nearby closed years ago. I've never visited it.

I never saw the allure, and this from a person who cares greatly for T&A. I've been dragged into them a few times, against my will. Complete waste of time and money each time. Always found Hooters regulars to be worthy of scientific observation.

A trashy chain with shitty food that caters to easily impressed incels and isn't financially viable in the age of maga? That's the real story here.
