Red Lobster says it's feeling the "Beyonce Bounce."

The seafood chain says sales surged 33 percent Sunday, compared with last year's Super Bowl Sunday. The increase came after the release of "Formation," a song in which Beyonce says she took a man to Red Lobster after sex.

Unless of course by scare quotes you mean those who really aren’t, but who have been accused of such.

Being independent, they had more hope.

Maybe I’ll wait until the Beyonce excitement dies down.

Yes they are, and my local grocer sells the mix for them.

People are so weird, a song makes you to a restaurant? Strange

I looked up Willow Smith. She was only nine years old when she made that video.

I like Red Lobster and this won’t affect me either way. Mongo only pawn in game of life.

With how fast the culture is declining, next thing you know we’ll have presidential candidates calling each other p*ssy and dropping the f-bomb in speeches. Let’s hope it doesn’t get that bad.

How could they understand any of the words she lip synced anyway? I sure couldn’t. Anyway the last time I ate at Red Lobster it was as nasty & overpriced as Beyonce’s performance.

To avoid every entity suggested for boycott on FR, you pretty much have to become Amish.

LOL

“You have to try their biscuits”

Blind squirrel syndrome, probably the only thing keeping them afloat. Box mix in stores as well.

I guess it has to be black folk that are supporting the fish shop. Probably not very good for the staff since black folks don’t tip very good.

Whites need to boycott the place.

People go to a restaurant because some chunky black stripper mentions it in a song? What a bunch of sheep.
