An old college friend telephoned the other day with a business proposal. After a few brief introductory exchanges, my friend asked, "Have you ever patronized a Hooters' Restaurant?" I said that my wife and I believe that Hooters serves one of the best hamburgers we've ever eaten. We have eaten many times at Hooters and it's true that several years ago, while family vacationing, we took our young grandchildren to a Florida Hooters for lunch. As I said, Hooters offers a great burger.
Hooters, for the few who may not know, is named in reference to a female's breasts. The Hooters Restaurant waitresses are young women who wear tight fitting short-shorts and a low cut neckline top, which exposes Hooters' cleavage. These well mannered young waitresses come to your table, sit down with you and with a friendly, hometown-girl-next door chit chat demeanor take your order from a bar-style food menu.
Okay, back to the telephone call and my college friend's business proposal. He wishes to approach the Hooters' corporation and explore the possibility that a similar restaurant theme appealing to female customers could offer a financial windfall. This new restaurant could be attached to existing Hooters establishments in such a fashion that the same kitchen would serve the Hooters customers and the 'BALLS' Restaurant patrons. You heard it correctly...'Balls!' The Balls eatery side would feature male-waiters wearing cut-away sleeveless t-shirts and tight fitting Speedo swim trunks.
In offering this 'Hooters-Balls' merger, we ease the rather demeaning connotation targeting women as 'sex symbols' as we advance 'turn-about' gawking by females toward males. I shall keep you updated on the progress of this idea and let you know if anything comes up.
