Bull! Hooters has the best wings. My wife and I went to Hooters for our 8th(?) anniversary dinner because SHE wanted to go there. It was HER idea and I was okay with it because AI really enjoy their wings.

Back in january, my nephew celbrated his 18th birthday there. My mom, my sister/his mom, my other 2 nephews (12 & 14 at the time, i think), my wife and I and our 5 kids all went. My kids were 8, 7, 5, 2 and 14 months at the time. Hooters is fine for a family outing.

Those that say it is not act like it is a nudie bar or something....

Who eats wings for dinner? :confused:

People who celebrate their anniversaries there? :p

Actually, I'm semi not allowed (welcomed) back in Hooters, I've only been twice. The second time I went it was "watergun day" and all of the waitresses thought it was cute to carry those little cheap water gun pistols and shoot the customers when they weren't looking. I thought it was funny, I even got shot a few times by this really cute waitress.

Well, I talked up this other cutie and convinced her to give me her water gun. This way when that other waitress shot me again at least I'd be armed and ready to counterattack :). My rationale was to shoot for the head area as I thought they might take offense to their clothes getting wet, even though that was preferred by every guy at our table.

Long story short the girl shot me again and I shot her back. It hit her mainly in the hair and some on the face. She went livid. At first I thought she was joking but she was PISSED. She slammed down her tray and stomped off.

The other waitress came up and said "What the heck happened?". we all told her and she informed us that the girl was mad that I "ruined her makeup".......okay, whatever, it didn't really do anything. She looked the same to us. But the nice waitress said the girl I shot was "really really pissed". I gave my gun back to the nice waitress and told her to send my apologies along and that to also tell the girl I'd like to apologize in person if that was okay with her.

About five minutes pass and I along with my three friends are still there downing a few beers. The waitress I shot comes out with a pitcher full of water. Now I think nothing of this as some people are drinking water, so I assume it's for refills. she shoots me a "eat sh1t and die look" but goes in the other direction behind me.

the next thing I know I see the expression on my friends faces change to a look of shock and that's when a sudden splash of a pitcher full of water came pouring down my back.

I wanted to clock that girl soooo bad, but I didn't feel like going to jail that day so I just got up, took my ownage like a man, and walked out of there.

I believe that story is legend there now and part of the local history of that location.

owned.

I have no problem going with a bunch of my guy & gal friends, but would not be comfortable at all with my family. Everytime I go to hooters, there's always a couple families there. No big deal for me as long as it's not my family.

That would not be my first choice for an anniversary either.

Well, we are going to go tomorrow... it will be a fun time.

PS, there is nothing more i can say besides my dad is a perv. He was raised very tightly under catholic supervision by my gramma and now that he is an adult he is way into all things sex way beyond... simply beceause he was repressed as a young boy/man

They have decent food. I see nothing wrong with going to this establishment to eat. Not the best but certainly not the worst I've ever had. The women have tight shirts and short shorts on but its nothing outrageous. They are generally nice until you squirt them in the face with a water pistol..then its ON! So the legend goes anyways... :D

Anybody ever heard Jeff Foxworthy's "Cousin's Wedding" routine? :evil:

I have to admit, after reading the initial post, it was the first thing that popped into my mind.

Well, it could be worse... you dad could have suggested a strip club for afterwards!

Seriously, its not that weird. Hooters isn't a strip club and is a restaurant. Now if you Dad has problems staring at the waitstaff or otherwise making an ass of himself you might encourage him to redirect his attention to the televisions and quit being a letch.

My Dad would never go to Hooters. Regardless, I think that it is a bit weird to go there, especially with family. Even just a normal bar would be cooler than that.

I've only eaten a couple appetizers there and one of them was wings. I thought their wings were average at best. Looking at the food the waitresses were serving to other patrons nothing really looked all that great. Everyone eating there was fat too...go figure. :roll:

I certainly wouldn't go there for the food.

I've never seen a Hooters...it's a boob show, right?

Yes that'd be very uncomfortable for me in a family group.

It'd be sort of sad if your brother secretly eels that way too but would just reluctantly go along with daddy-o's wishes.

Eh, id probably go for something a little nicer then hooters for his 21st. If it was just a random occasion then hooters would be fine. I saw famalies with little kids the first time i went for a friends 20th bday.

Hooters is a bit over the top. A better choice would be a strip joint, or a juice bar such as Deja Vu. You brother would love you for it.

I hadn't been to Hooters in a couple of years and then went a week or so ago. Food was terrible and it is so loud, you can't think, much less speak to someone at your own table.

I've been there with friends, but I would never go with family, that would be just awkward. I do like their wings though.
