hooters and the trouser trouts
Worthy of a page of it’s own. After the AIDS Walk while milling around Union Station – the boys got hungry and I got a wild hair…. “Let’s go to Hootersâ€
Chad nor Kevin had ever eaten there. I was about 19 the last time I’d been.
Turns out one of Chad’s co-workers who was with us knew the manager. (The Hard Rock Cafe is right accross the parking lot from Hooters). So not only did we get 50% of our meal comped, but I got the photo-opp of the month.
Can’t say the food was terrible.. Typical for a chain… The Buffalo Chicken sandwich was tasty, although a bit overpriced.
Not a problem though – I would have happily paid $20 for a sandwich if it meant we’d get a group photo with the waitresses.
Just too damn campy to resist.
Instead of trying to explain to the nice young ladies about how I “don’t†maintain this online journal thing where I post photos and stories – I simply just said we were looking for a photo to use as this year’s Christmas Card.
They bought it… I’m sure they’re used to having their photos taken and being ogled over. Probably what they “weren’t†used to was a camera wielding, non-blogging, kitsch-seeking triad of dumpy gay guys.
so.. I exploited them… But I can sleep soundly that I did so for unconventional reasons.
