The Hooter's girls I've seen never look anything like that...

If it opens and they are against it they can elect not to eat there. If the place fails to get enough business then it will close.

Too good for a Hooters?

It's not the kind of place I hang out in but I hardy find it offensive. I've eaten in a few of them and find the hype a bit better than the food.

That is true... that woman was probably hired for the photoshoot, or like strip clubs, the woman get better looking the bigger the city.

This is NOT a grassroots movement.

Bamberger is president of Boardwalk Development, which among other ventures manages the shopping center on Bernardo Center Drive that houses Vons and other stores.

Bamberger also is president of the Bernardo Town Center Property Owners Association.

This is an established businessman and property developer trying to eliminate competition.

All the Hooter's girls I've ever seen looked a lot like the girls at the nearby college. They were, I suppose, decorative, but I don't go to restaurants to stare at mammary glands, generally. Eating's always my goal.

These anti-Hooter's campaigns seem so silly to me. Shorts and t-shirts? Just go to any mall. Lots of pretty girls there, and you don't have to buy any food.

Not a very tittlating thread so far. So here are some Hooters stories:

See story here (scroll down).

Here is another Recent Hooters story

The "Toy-Yoda" story is about the only interesting story to come out of Hooters. Other than that it's just a place where young women wear a little and guys drink and eat bad food and look at the young women. In Texas we call them "Titty Bar Light". I tell you where they should open one, and that's right in the middle of Baghdad. And fill it up with big, loud American women. Why? It would piss off the moslems. Why piss off the moslems? Why not?

I was getting my hair cut this week and they always have this big TV on in the barber shop (a real barbe shop) and some story came on about some baseball guy calling someone "something" and having to take special classes to become "sensitive". There happened to be a couple of ladies in the barber shop with their little boys (who could care less what we were talking about) waiting to get their hair cut. The TV program wouldn't say what this baseball player had said. I seemed to remember that the baseball player called some sportwriter a "fag". Well, none of the men in the barber shop seemed to be able to say that out loud. Maybe it's because of the women and the little boys. So I said "I think he called him a fag, so what? There is something wrong when men in this country act like they are little girls. I'm not too sure who's idea that was but count me out. Boys should be boys and men should be men". One of the ladies looked at me and gave me a thumbs up.

So, if Hooters wants to build a Titty Bar Light somewhere they are able to buy or lease the land I don't care. Because there is nothing wrong with a guy looking at the female form. I'll be 105 and on my death bed and it's likely I'll do two things before I "go", one is that I'll ask the Lord to forgive all my sins and the second is to ask the nurse to turn around so I can grab her butt right before I leave.

As a side note, Waco, Texas, used to be a closed-down community. Every lawsuit was determined by the lawyers and judges (they all knew each other) before the trial began, with the Waco insider winning. If anyone tried to open a business who wasn't one of the powerful Waco families, they found their property taxes skyrocketing and their property being rezoned to outlaw the proposed business. It used to be very common in Texas for a few families to run every town. Waco's opened up quite a bit in the last ten years. The joke used to be that we were three fancy funerals from breaking loose.

Sorta sick and tired of these people telling me they can't allow my kids to say the Pledge of Allegiance in our schools, certain businesses don't fit with their expectations of "where the culture is going". Who died and left them god? Culture uber alles.

I thought that the hamburger I got at Hooters was excellent.

"Hot and populated by people not high-end enough to buy a home in a coastal area."

The median price for single family homes in RB is just about the highest in San Diego County. It is higher than any coastal area in San Diego County other than La Jolla, Coronado and Del Mar. Its higher than PB, Mission Beach, Ocean Beach, Point Loma, or Encinitas.

Bamberger sounds like a bigger boob than what will appear at the proposed Hooters.

Considering my DH is a personal trainer and works with women wearing tight fitting outfits it didn't bother him in the least and he saw nothing that made him drool.

I figure ordering food to be delivered from Hooters is like going to a bordello to read the magazines.

What? You never went to a bordello to read magazines? I thought everybody did that.

Lawsuits against Hooters always come in pairs.

They should have landscaping which includes ornamental pair, uh pear, oh, never mind.

Since all of the women there meet that criteria for someone I guess some guys/dads don't care about other men objectifying the women in their lives.

Yes, beauty should be hidden lest man be tempted. Let's get them burkas...

My son used to root for the Hooters car at NASCAR races just because he liked to yell "I love Hooters" in public.
