There's something about Sacramento that just won't allow it.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-31-2005 07:16 PM                     Unbelievably there IS actually one here in Salt Lake City and its been here for a long time...... I wouldn't brag about the food... its ok but there are alot of better places here to eat........ both things...... Mark  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.

Very nice FA uniforms. Now there's an airline I wouldn't mind flying for. That's actually still going? I thought it went the ways of Roots' & Sky Service's Beaver Air. OK, it wasn't really called Beaver Air, but I'm not sure if anybody at Sky Service knew what it was really named.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-01-2005 09:28 AM                     Paul said "Now there's an airline I wouldn't mind flying for." I believe Pussy Galore is the head pilot for them  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 09-01-2005 11:35 AM                       Phil is not joking! Hooter's Air The damned thing flies out of Allentown, too! Don't get me wrong. I love women and their jugs more than just about anything in life, but somehow, airborne near-strippers has a tacky, Jethro Bodine flavor about it that doesn't exactly instill confidence in the air.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-01-2005 01:46 PM                     tim said "that doesn't exactly instill confidence in the air.

It was actually a "knockoff." The waitresses wore owl suits that weren't sexy in the least. They all had screechy voices, too.  |  IP: Logged Bruce McGee Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1776 From: Asheville, NC USA... Nowhere in Particular. Registered: Aug 1999 posted 09-01-2005 06:36 PM                     We just got a HOOTERS here in Asheville. The religious zelots had a field-day with it until it actually opened. I've only been to one Hooters. It was in Atlanta, and I met Bruce Hansen there. The big hot dog I ate was tasty. Lots of boobs and things to look at.  |  IP: Logged Joseph L.

We haven't seen this much excitement in Sacramento since Cheesecake Factory opened last year.  |  IP: Logged Chase Hanson Expert Film Handler Posts: 172 From: San Diego, CA Registered: Oct 2004 posted 09-01-2005 09:58 PM                     Crap, it seemed like something cool was missing from Sactown, I just would have never guessed it was a Hooters. *packs bags and movies back to Sacremento*  |  IP: Logged Martin Brooks Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 900 From: Forest Hills, NY, USA Registered: May 2002 posted 09-01-2005 10:16 PM                        It's pretty funny that people would make a fuss over a Hooters opening because plenty of people take their young kids there. When you peek in the window, it looks like a family restaurant. While the female servers wear hot pants and extremely tight outfits, their legs are actually completely covered in opaque stockings. I go to Hooters once a year when I go to my accountant to have my taxes done. I always go late at night and it's the only thing open when I get out. But IMHO, the food really, really sucks. Plus, they only serve Pepsi brand soft drinks, which I hate. But I have to admit that the girls are really cute. But somehow they manage to find the oldest waitress in the place to serve me, which I guess is just as well because most of the servers are much younger than my daughter and I feel really funny just looking in their direction.  |  IP: Logged Will Kutler Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1506 From: Tucson, AZ, USA Registered: Feb 2001 posted 09-02-2005 01:47 PM                     Hooters is more or less a sports bar/restraunt, with typical food for this type venue....but they are expensive. Their claim to fame is their Buffalo Wings....which you can order with a bottle of Dom Perignon for about $100.00. All their waitresses are younger college girls who are stacked. But just how good looking the girls are can depend on the time of season...summer vacation, spring break...etc, etc. Their waitresses wear short-shorts (no g-string or bikini) and tight t-shirts w/no bra that show off their assets. I suppose you could go up to one of the blondes, aske her if she's a real blonde.....then ask her to prove it! or ya might ask 'em for some cream in your...ahem....coffee!

Kleiman Master Film Handler Posts: 380 From: Sacramento, CA Registered: Apr 2005 posted 09-06-2005 11:37 AM                     I finally went there and I was very dissappointed. 1. They make you wait in a line outside until there is a seat available inside. No reservations, no pagers. Just standing, staring in, watching the people on the inside enjoy the Hooters girls for the next hour or so. Fun, fun, fun. This kind of thing might work in, say, Salt Lake City, but it's over 100 degrees here in Sacramento. 2. The food sucks. I was craving Fudruckers after this. 3. The girls didn't smile. Was it because this is a Hooters in Sacramento? 4. My theory about the Hooters girls working their way through college turned out to be true. My brother recognized two of them from his local community college. His friend recognized the same two from his local strip club. I miss the Hooters in Fort Lauderdale, where all the girls were aerobics instructors. 5. I think everything in the kitchen is premade. It's kind of like the MRE's being handed out to survivors in New Orleans (tasted the same too). 6. The beer did nothing to quench my parched throat after waiting an hour in the hot sun to get in. 7. The only way to truly follow up a crappy Sacramento Hooters experience is a fried twinkie at the state fair.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 09-06-2005 02:52 PM                     quote: I suppose you could go up to one of the blondes, aske her if she's a real blonde.....then ask her to prove it! Oh geez. A show of hands, is that not THE most pathetic, old and tired line of all time?  |  IP: Logged
