Man allegedly tries to rob Hooters by claiming he has bomb
The Capital Times ^ | August 23, 2010 | BILL NOVAK

Posted on 08/23/2010 1:02:59 PM PDT by ConservativeStatement

A patron at Hooters who ran up a $100 bar tab decided to rob the establishment instead of paying for his bill, threatening the manager by saying he had a bomb in his backpack, police said.

The manager promptly called police, and the customer made a hasty retreat from the bar, leaving both the backpack and the bar bill behind, according to a Madison Police Department report. No bomb was found in the backpack.

“Is that a bomb in your package or are you just happy to see me?”

I don't know about Hooters, but at the Philadelphia International Airport, that tab means you bought one beer and a bag of peanuts.

I saw a sign on a Hooters advertising a "takeout menu". Talk about missing the point -- does anybody go there for the food (rather than the scenery)?

Yeah, claim to have a bomb ... that will get you in less trouble than a $100 bar tab you can’t pay for.

Hooters on Fort Lauderdale Beach (of all places... the beach)... anyway, saw/heard an older couple ask for takeout, then a moment after looking around, the husband quietly asked the Mrs. “Or would you rather eat here?” Those of us who heard him raised a glass and cheered.

Sounds like this whole plan to bomb Hooters was a bust.

The one hooters I went to, was a bomb free zone. Very disappointing.

Undoubtedly the waitress just stared at him, confused.

Bomb? huh? There is a Hooters in Tel Aviv, Israel.

I drank beer; the food did not appear kosher.

On a Hooters “takeout menu” missing the point.......

Went to a poetry reading, couple of former Hooters waitresses were in attendance, one with a POWERFUL craving for wings. She brought a couple dozen, takeout.

I’ve only eaten in one Hooters. It was in Valdosta, GA, right next door to the Ramadan Inn where we were staying. The wife and I enjoyed the wings. But it wasn’t as good the free evening cocktail and the free hot breakfast at the Ramadan Inn.

Without the curves and cleavage Hooters is just an overrated chain joint with lousy food.
