Hooters Air Inc.

Hooters Air Inc. With all of the discussion about airlines going bankrupt and our economy in jeopardy, some people are surely thinking ahead. If it'll be 'Hooters Girls' flight attendants, it's too early," Cattell said. But she didn't dismiss the idea.

Hooters is the only restaurant that I've ever been to that has food that tastes worse than airline food. The girls were skanky Plasticine whores with too much makeup.

I liked them and I hope the new airline uses the girls and not the food.

They can call it Great Satan Airlines, just so the terrorists won't be confused.

Well hell, I hope they not only have "Hooters Flight Attendants" but also something for us straight gals to oggle. Hm, anyone seen that Joe Boxer Ad for K-Mart? Yes, that gentleman can give me peanuts any old time.
/sarcasm.

I still think they should put the name of Allah on all airplanes. Aren't muslims forbidden to destroy the name of God?

For some reason, strippers and pr0n stars don't bother me, but Hooters girls and Miss America give me hives. Maybe it's just that I appreciate honesty in advertising.

Guess they won't be earning their wings every day.

They'll be serving them with bleu cheese or ranch dressing.

Kindall, that is an incredibly twisted and clever idea. Unfortunately it won't work -- Muslims aren't supposed to go to hookers either, but the hijackers had no problem with doing so the night before blowing up lower Manhattan. (Which is to say their commitment to Islamic values was, shall we say, somewhat less than total -- even leaving aside all the claims that Islam is supposed to be a religion of peace.) Next time they might actually use Hooters Airlines, for all we know.

I'm glad people are responding. I was afraid this thread would go tits up.

Not only that, but everyone seems to be pretty intelligent - no boobs in this thread!

And will those Hooters Girls will be such eager beavers (sorry) to work as flight attendants if Air Hooters becomes the favorite airline of lesbians?

Kindall, from what I've heard, becoming an Islamic martyr overrides other Islamic rules. For example, normally bodies are washed before burial; but a martyrs body is deamed clean from the act of martyrdom. The end result is that I'm sure they could justify ignoring "allah" written on the plane. Similar to how they justify blowing up a bus that has many muslim passengers as well; as surely some were carrying copies of the Koran with countless references to Allah.

Well, now that United Airlines has announced that they're in financial trouble, maybe this guy could take it over, put Hooters Girls on as stews, and then we could all...

...eye the friendly thighs of United.

ahem.

I love Hooters, and the wings.

I agree. Their wings are not as good as other chains, such as BW3. And the girls are well, delightfully tacky, yet unrefined, as the shirts say.

It really wasn't delightful, either.

Will the flight attendants double as floatation devices?
