Are they still a thing?

I remember middle and HS in the 90’s.

You were the cool mofo if you had a hooters or HR T-shirt.

Even cooler if it was from foreign lands.

I’ve been to a couple hooters. I like the wings.

Only one HR i think. The short lived Hard Rock Choctaw at the Choctaw Indian Res.

HR even still do restaurants? Or just hotel and casinos now?


Pretty cool to eat a burger by Elton Johns peacock costume.


Saw a blip somewhere that Hooters was struggling because of the PC atmosphere now. Don’t want women showing off the ta-taas for $$

Hooters went to hell when they had to start lowering their standards. Last time I went to one all of the waitresses looked like Jenny Craig "before" models.

Went in one in Evansville. When the waitress came over I asked when she was due. She said a week ago.

I used to collect Hard Rock T shirts. Think I still have one from Moscow, that I bought there.

the Florida Seminole Indians now own all the Hard Rock places. They are making money, big time.

First i heard of Twin Peaks was 7-8 years ago maybe.

Houma LA. It was in a remodeled Ryan’s building.

Was in town for a day or two of training.

Around Halloween.

Cause the night we ate there was the Halloween Costume Contest.

Man o man.

One lil coonass girl was wearing a fig leaf Eve costume.

I went to one in Tulsa many moons ago, and I'm pretty sure it was slutty pirate hooker night. No complaints were uttered.

A buddy of mine had his Hooters waitress water break while taking their order.
She just kinda rolled with it, got their order put in and then beat feet to the hospital.

Went into a Hooters once and got throwed out.

Apparently ordering a large glass of milk is frowned upon.


Screw you! I'm voting for Trump again!

Only been to a couple Hooters.
Downtown Indy after ATA show, for a few years.
Nothing great.

One by Castleton mall, before groids ruined that area
Jeep event yearly.
Had one waitress, maybe late 30s, that was damn near perfect.

Went to the one in Lafayette after a wheeling day at Badlands offroad park.
Tired and beat up.....my kids wanted to go there (oldest maybe jr high ).

Bouncing boobers tried to get me to buy the kidsT shirts.
So I asked ....got any that say "my mom died in a fiery car crash" ?

She quit bothering us after that.
Funny, learned later she knew my kids mom ( my ex ).

LMFAO

We had a Tilted Kilt here - same concept basically.

Hooters was a thing and I've been to a few but nothing super memorable.

Hard Rock - as a younger Eric Clapton nut, I always wanted to go but again - nothing memorable.

I grew up/lived in an NFL town and later an NBA town - the whole "sports bar" thing is kinda lost on me. Same goes for Buffalo Wild Wings.

They're all relatively expensive these days so if I'm going to dinner - I want a dive bar with a greasy burger or I want something a bit more high end - aged steaks, Old Fashioneds etc.
