I find it funny that the dude who made Hooters made it for himself because he was banned from so many strip clubs that he thought he would make his own version of one. And that because he only cared about himself, it never evolved and was dying until he sold it after declaring bankruptcy last year.

Maybe with the new owners, we will finally get the Femboy Hooters we really want.

FWIW,

wp:Hooters

Hooters, Inc., was incorporated in Clearwater, Florida, on April 1, 1983, by six Clearwater businessmen: Lynn D. Stewart, Gil DiGiannantonio, Ed Droste, Billy Ranieri, Ken Wimmer and Dennis Johnson. The date was an April Fools' Day joke because the original six owners believed that their prospect was going to fail.

Somehow I never realized that I want a bar with goth staff and a psychobilly band on the stage.

While hilarious, I’m not in love with the oversexualizing of anyone by gross elitists.

As a socialist, if some workers want to create a sexy restaurant, cool.

I'll only attend femboy hooters if they are unionized

Dude, how do you bankrupt boob restaurant? That's as bad as bankrupting a casino

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 4 points 21 hours ago

The current US President bankrupt 3 casinos. So there's obviously a draw for it.

The food sucked and people stopped being quite as sexist to wanna go in the first place.

Like I say about fox hunting ...maybe the people that like sexualising women so much should step up and be Hooters waitresses.

Oh someone once told me it was because some states didn't issue licenses for strip clubs so this was the best thing they could get away with and it just took off (even without taking it off 🫣). But it was probably a made up story then.

The new owners are some of the older franchise owners. It is going back to the old ways.
