I can’t believe Jon Daly is alive...it’s actually impressive.

Four wives, three kids, and 100,000 beers later. :)

"Real question. I love good chicken wings and used to enjoy Hooters occasionally but the last 5 to 10 years I’ve noticed a change in the wings or breading or maybe the sauce. Its just not as good. Has anyone else noticed that?"

I could be in a minority but a well fried wing (not even considering sauce) should be two things. 1) Med-Large in size and 2) Cooked at a lower temperature for at least 20 minutes. Breaded or not, wings need to be crispy. Not rubbery.

That's how the Thirsty Turtle in Juno Beach does it, and when you add their sauce, it's pretty much wing heaven.

Thirsty Turtle Wings (sauce is a hot/honey/garlic mix):

My now departed golf pro friend Neal was on the AR team w/ him freshman year for both. He said Daly would drink a fifth of Jack every night + a dozen or so beers.

That’s adorable! Several years ago our car broke down in Knoxville & we stayed at a hotel for 5 nights I got sick & we were stuck). We asked the desk clerk to recommend a place to eat close by. He recommended twin peaks. I had never heard of one. I was surprised because the food was really delicious and our waitress was a sweetheart.

Love your story ❤️

Apparently the kid claimed the car had been stolen and no one asked any questions. Insurance - I’m guessing - fixed everything along with rich dad. When the story was told to me they were like more than a year out from it. The same kid had a home-based business and to all reports did fairly well.

I was in a hard rock/punk rock band. That’s the only thing I will say about it, these guys are super litigious and hate my guts, and if I even mention them on the internet they start acting out against me. It’s kind of a drag. (Why else do you think I would associate with such a bunch of losers? Nice people run away from me!)

I used to enjoy going to hooters, because their buffalo wings were absolutely delicious. I’ve been to other wings places, and they can’t compare. I don’t care what the girls are wearing, that’s not what I’m there for.

Women are allowed to show off their ‘assets’ or not. It’s up to them. If they don’t want to, that’s fine too. But remember, they wear a lot less at the beach! 😅

Two guys go to Hooters....
Two guys grow up together, but after college one moves to Georgia and the other to Texas. They agree to meet every ten years in Florida to play golf and catch up with each other.

At age 32 they meet, finish their round of golf and head for lunch.
“Where you wanna go?”
“Hooters.”
“Why Hooters?”
“They have those servers with the big boobs, the tight shorts and the gorgeous legs.”
“You’re on.”

At age 42, they meet and play golf again
“Where you wanna go for lunch?”
“Hooters.”
“Again? Why?”
“They have cold beer, big screen TVs, and side action on the games.”
“OK.”

At age 52 they meet and play again. “So where you wanna go for lunch?”
“Hooters.
“Why?”
“The food is pretty good and there’s plenty of parking.”
“OK.”

At age 62 they meet again.
After a round of golf, one says, “Where you wanna go?”
“Hooters.”
“Why?”
“Wings are half price and the food isn’t too spicy.”
“Good choice”

At age 72 they meet again.
Once again, after a round of golf, one says, “Where shall we go for lunch?”
“Hooters.”
“Why?”
“They have six handicapped parking spaces right by the door and they have senior discounts.”
“Great choice.”

At age 82 they meet and play again. “Where should we go for lunch?”
“Hooters.”
“Why?”
“Because we’ve never been there before.”
“Okay, let’s give it a try.”
