According to the manager of that restaurant, all of the Hooters locations in the city (Rancho Bernardo is in the zone) have taken up this policy. "The signs went up at our four locations in San Diego this morning," said Melissa Fry, director of marketing for HootWinc, the west coast Hooters franchise. "It's not a political move for us in any way, shape, or form. We're strictly taking a stand for the fair treatment of women. At our franchise alone, we employ 1100 beautiful, talented women." And so Mayor Bob Filner, who has been locked out of city hall, has just been locked out of this fine family restaurant.

My cousin worked at hooters for about ten minutes. Her parents paid her to quit.
I had no idea they were so virtuous.

I like Hooters - frequently meet friends to have drinks in one. Service is very, very good.
Some people look at you funny when you take kids to them though.

Very drole, Mrs B. reminds me of the gag:
"I have no problems with buying tampons. I am a fairly modern man. But apparently they're not a 'proper' present. 'Happy birthday, mum!'"
It's great to be first at last
