Per The Nation's Restaurant Review: "The original founders currently have the rights to five counties across Florida, and entering The Villages through this agreement extends their reach into a sixth county. While they enter this new market, HMC will continue to grow in its existing markets throughout the state including Clearwater, St. Petersburg, and Tampa.
Site selection is currently underway in The Villages and North Las Vegas, with locations projected to open by early 2024.":bigbow::bigbow::bigbow:

Are they hiring waitresses over 80 years old? Then it might get interesting.

LOL I do know a couple of “senior” ladies that wouldn’t look bad in a Hooters. I suppose most of the “help” will come from the new “Middleton” which is going to satisfy our labor shortage in this area. We will see how that turns out in a few years.

The Hooters in Ft. Myers Beach (the world's smallest Hooters as the sign once said) didn't make it through Ian. But when it was open parents and grandparents would bring their kids there.

If they had the fun park attached they likely had a great time with the “inflatables”.

I remember taking my daughter there ( she was about 4-5 years old at the time) to the one near us in MD...
It was like taking a puppy to the park... :p

“World’s Smallest Hooters”. I see what they did there.

Very easy to understand. Because those kind of men are a dime a dozen. Smart women go for the respectable ones

Very true. Honestly I can’t believe they still open Hooters. Who goes there anymore? It’s like a step above a strip joint.

My guess is they'll probably only want to hire girls with "young" hooters. Those orange t-shirts aren't very long!

I've been to Hooters maybe three times ever. Other than the skimpy outfits and the fact that all their workers are physically attractive, everything else was like a normal wing-joint. The wings were pretty good, but that was when I discovered I should only get boneless wings. I'm a slob, and can't figure out how to get the meat off the bone without getting sauce all over my face.
As a woman confident in her own skin, I took no offense by the women wearing skimpy clothes. As a customer who wants tasty food at reasonable prices, I was satisfied with my meal. As a woman who thinks men should have to prove their competency to breed, I was - not overly impressed by the attitudes of most of the male customers there, but it was nothing I didn't expect. I have low expectations of men in the presence of beautiful women wearing skimpy clothes.

No, Hooters is nothing like a strip club. At Hooters, there is a no touching rule — meaning guests aren’t allowed to touch the waitresses, but also the waitresses can’t touch guests, unless it is for a photo.

Appreciating pretty women does not make one disrespectful. They can still be respectable.

Pretty sure there is no touching at a strip club as well.

As Yogi Berra used to say nobody goes there anymore it is too crowded.

Generally, I find provocative dressing and behavior by either gender turns my appetite off. Now painting a beautiful live nude model in art like, but that other stuff is just gross. For me, somethings just don’t mix.

From what is shown on the web, and we all know that the web never lies, the male strip (attended by females)clubs are by FAR more,... risque(?) than the ones men would go to. I had a large Japanese account; whenever they would come to NYC to meet with me they were more interested in going to Scores than discussing upcoming labor contracts.

I think statistics would probably disprove that. The vast majority of women go for the alpha male due to instincts. And the alpha male's focus is much less on respectable than the beta male.

I doubt an alpha male would go to Hooters, his ego doesn't need the boost.

What if he just wants some tasty wings, cold beer and to watch multiple football games, with a side of cute waitresses?
That's more of an "Id" thing...

Looking in that direction from time to time is not leering, it is what males are programmed to do by mother nature.

The one on Gulf To Bay in Tampa had fantastic buffalo shrimp. I'd go to this new one if they still serve them.
