Hooters has closed dozens of locations as inflation continues choking people and businesses in President Joe Biden’s America.

A Hooters spokesperson told the New York Post on Monday, “Like many restaurants under pressure from current market conditions, Hooters has made the difficult decision” to shut down some of its restaurants.

Approximately 40 of its 300 restaurants across the globe have been closed. However, the company has been opening locations for American consumers and others all over the world, while also offering its frozen foods on the shelves of grocery stores.

It’s a lot less expensive to watch softcore porn while eating chicken wings at home.

It’ll be 33 years in July since I’ve been in a Hooters.....coincidentally that’s the exact same number of years I’ve been married. 😏

I thought inflation was the whole point of the place.

If any of the waitresses are homeless, I’ll do some interviews and let them live with me for a bit.

I’m sure my wife won’t mind.

Biden’s idiotic mouthpiece Karine Jean-Pierre just claimed that prices are going down. What the heck is wrong with Hooters? Why don’t they believe the lovely Ms. Jean-Pierre?

ANOTHER VIEWPOINT:

THE FEDS GRABBED MUSTANG RANCH BROTHEL HERE IN N NEVADA OVER TAXES< ETC.

THE FEDS TRIED RUNNING IT.

PLENTY OF BOOZE & LEGAL PROSTITUTION

THE FEDS LOST $$$$$$$$$$$ !!!!!!!

LANCE GILMAN Bought the assets off E-Bay in an auction.

HE moved everything to his own property —INCLUDING HIRING A HEAVY LIFT HELICOPTER TO PICK UP THE MAIN BUILDING-—AND FLY IT to new location.

THE MAIN PART——THE FEDS LOST $$$$$$$$$$ RUNNING A LEGAL WHOREHOUSE.

Actually the feds have run most of the whorehouses in Nevada. Apparently whoremongers aren’t into paying taxes. And yeah they “lose money” for a while (all the money goes to the fed for the back taxes, they have no interest in doing anything else with the money) then they sell it. And the new owner doesn’t pay their taxes, and the feds take them over, lather rinse repeat.

Men have been suckers for breasts forever...Somethin’ else goin’ on.

According to Business Insider, a meta-analysis from PornHub revealed some changing tastes in adult entertainment. When it came to the searches of people between 18 and 24 years old, they were the least likely to be looking for entertainment that was, well, breast-centric. Look at the age group that was between 55 and 64, and they're 17 percent more likely to be searching for breasts, but they're also not really the target market.

And they say that's a real problem for Hooters. The younger generation just isn't as impressed by women in low-cut shirts as their elders are, and when that's your schtick, it hurts your bottom line when it falls out of fashion.

I was at the public auction at the Mustang. Bid on the liquor collection, the price got stupid high, dropped out.

Was at my daughter’s college town in Montana at homecoming and all of the restaurants were packed. Hooters was the least crowded so we went there, much to the chagrin of my wife. (But it was her decision.)

We got inside and all of the gals were wearing jeans and flannel shirts tucked into their pants.

I told my wife “Well no wonder they aren’t very busy!”

*It’ll be 33 years in July since I’ve been in a Hooters.....coincidentally that’s the exact same number of years I’ve been married. 😏*

You must understand 2 things: When you’re married 33 years you’re at an age where it doesn’t matter. When you are 33 years of age they do. My great joy at that time was taking my young nephew on a road trip to see a game and introduce him to the single life at Hooters.

The difference between you and me-I recognize fine cuisine when I see it.

One of the earliest memes on the web is “ Hooters girls won’t go out with you because they know you lowered your standards enough to want to go out with them.”

They should open one up in The Villages. Good for business.
