A Hooters location in Charleston, West Virginia, saw hundreds gather for a candlelight vigil in honor of the building being demolished to make way for a gas station. Former employees and residents gathered to share hugs and tears while mourning the loss of the building via candlelight. The location had become a local landmark before its closure. A sizeable group of young men also gathered at the building site to hoot, holler, and even crowd-surf. "Long live Hooters!" the crowd yelled, as the youngsters screamed enthusiastically into local news cameras.
