Boy, 11, warned after wearing ‘inappropriate’ Hooters face mask to Fla. school
WESH ^ | Sept. 21, 2020

ORLANDO, Fla. (WESH) - An 11-year-old Florida boy and his father say there was no reason for the fifth grader’s teacher and principal to tell him his Hooters-themed mask was “offensive to women” and couldn’t be worn at school.

Greg Golba and his 11-year-old son Ian don’t understand why the boy had to remove his Hooters mask on Tuesday at Sunset Park Elementary School in Windermere, Florida. The mask is orange with the word “Hooters” written on it multiple times in white font.

“I don’t think it’s offensive at all. It’s just a restaurant,” Ian said.

A customer took me to one years ago. My daughter was playing volleyball in those days. The hooters uniform looked like the volleyball uniforms, but with nylons. No biggie.

Sounds just like what the stupid boys said in high school. Glad my marine fighter pilot father scared the crap out of them

One establishment is on Fort Lauderdale Beach. The waitresses wear about three times more clothing than some similarly aged females on the beach.

Funny story, many moons ago when I was in that particular restaurant, a gentleman ordered takeout. As he waited, I told him he broke rule #1 “Takeout at Hooters.” He told me he had just driven from (Ohio...or Michigan) to south Florida. Needless to say, he opted to cancel the takeout.

I’ve never been to a more cringeworthy place in my life than a Hooters. Tacky, terrible food, overpriced, bad decor/seating... and where I live, virtually all females are ugly.

My wife wouldn’t go in there with us either.


My friends wife, for years, thought it was a strip club.

I’m a bit of a prude, and it is no big deal. Probably passed more women with less on on your river walk, unless it was winter.

I’ve been to 3 different Hooters and once being with my sister. All the waitresses were very nice to both of us. My sister’s sis-in-law had told her how horrible they were and I wanted to show my sister the sis-in-law was wrong. My sister agreed with me, they were all very nice. Good food and beer too!

Anti-Hooterism is misogyny against pretty and well endowed women seeking low skill employment.

What's so bad about some one-hit wonder 80s band?

I saw them in concert! Must have been 83 or 84? It was a pretty boring concert if I recall.

Schools can put in uniforms, think the best thing is standard masks for school attendance, not defending double standards, however, does seem like the father/son were probably trolling for a reaction.

I know I am preaching to the choir but the 80s were awesome in so many ways. Live from Philadelphia...

There are a bunch of nice looking gals working at the Hooters located on the Nana Hotel property across from the Nana Complex on Soi 4 in Bangkok. Their beer prices and lazy service is why I would watch them from across the street at Big Dogs.

Now wait a minute there.. .they had a few hits. All You Zombies, And We Danced, Day By Day, Where Do The Children Go... the two band leaders wrote Cindy Lauper's Time After Time, and they had a massive hit EP in Philadelphia called Amore.

Before they broke nationally, I saw the Hooters at my old high school auditorium outside of Philly. They had enough amplification for a 5,000 seat venue. My ears were ringing for three days thereafter....it was the loudest concert I ever heard, louder than Van Halen, louder than Anthrax.
