Is "Hooters" blue or red?
I was thinking of asking them to donate to a fundraiser but didn't know if they had any political allegiance. I did not find "Hooters" listed on the "Buy Blue" web site.

If they are listed under another corporation and someone knows this, please share.

Very RED according to this article.

"Of the major restaurant chains, only Hard Rock Café favored Democrats, donating 100 percent to them. Restaurants donating more than 90 percent of their contributions to Republicans were Cracker Barrel, Hooters, Logan’s Roadhouse, Olive Garden, Outback Steakhouse, Red Lobster, Macaroni Grill, Pizza Hut and Waffle House."

13. Sure as hell not BLUE
Only a RED could be such a sexist.

True liberals don't treat women like meat/entertainment.

16. Is this a trick question?
"They're what eeeever color you want here in your own little world!" "Thaaat's Right!" "And right over here I'm going to put a nice Happy Little Tree!"

I'd ask Bob Ross he's an expert on the wet on wet painting thingy.

17. Actually, they're orange.
Normally, orange pisses me off (Texas Longhorns, Oklahoma State, etc.). For Hooters, I make an exception. I use Hooters orange to show my son that not all orange is bad.

Of course, I go there for the food. :thumbsup:

24. So it's degrading to have to waitress
at a restaurant where you will make more in tips than other venues?

I doubt if the women who work in Hooters find it degrading. In fact, I would think most of them feel that they are experts at using men to get more tips.

27. Oh I am sure they do think they are experts at manipulating men
This wouldn't be the first time the love of the almighty dollar has led women to make decisions against their own best interests.

28. I imagine that during busy periods...
these ladies easily mae $30 - $40 an hour in tips. That doesn't sound too "degrading" to me. I know my friends and I always tip well when we go.

30. I should think that should each woman to decide for herself what...
...is in her own best interests. I shall assume that each of the women waitressing there is competent to make her own decisions and shall respect the decisions that they make regarding employment.

Often they are college students working their way through school.

Who are you are I to dictate to them what is in their interest?

23. Why not go ahead and ask them?
Even if corporate is "red", that doesn't mean that your local manager is -- and he controls the local purse strings.

I don't know about that. The food at Hooters is pretty hard to beat.
