Godd Riddance - Must Read

This has nothing to do with the set registry, but of importance nonetheless. Lubbock is apparently gettting a Hooters. Tons of people here in College Station are up in arms about it, because theyve been trying to get one here for years, but the city council won't go for it (or some other reason like that). Here's a funny quote from an Aggie board though-



<< <i>This is good news. Now those dirt monkey women will have a place to train before they begin their jobs in the service industry, working as strippers at Dallas gentleman's clubs. >>



White trash or not, I would love to have a Hooters around here.

Hooters is great. We have several scattered around town.. When i was going into the army, i had done all the paperwork and had to have a physical the following day at MEPS (military entrance processing station)(or something like that).. all the recruits for all branches of military had to stay overnight at a Ramada Inn, and wake up at 4am to be bussed to the MEPS building.. we had a curfew of 10pm, like 10 of us took a cab down the road to hooters and gave the cab driver a big tip.. we had his promise he would pick us up at 9:30 so we would be back at the hotel by curfew.. most of us were able to get served somehow, the rest just ate wings.. and we were all underage except for 1 dude.. anyway, 9:30 came and no cabbie.. 9:45.. the a$$hole never showed up.. 5 or 6 of the guys i was with got scared that they would be late and the decided they would WALK back to the hotel..(like 3 miles, they would be LATE anyway, it was already 10pm).. the rest of us stuck around outside the hooters hoping for another cab ride,

as luck would have it, 3 hooters girls were getting off work @ 10:00 and we were able to get rides from them.. we passed our "walking" buddies and honked the horn @ them.. we made it back without being noticed by the dork security guard rent-a-cop that the Army hired to watch us..

CS doesn't need a Hooters. Really....

Wingstop is garbage & all, but there's a FANTASTIC BBQ place coming to town in the next few months - Kenny Cotten's BBQ. Trust me on this one, it's the best.

If you're just wanting crappy food & scantily clad women, go to the dirty sock (or Northside by DG) once the semester starts again. Of course, in either case they still might look like horses, but at least they don't smell as bad as Parson's Mounted.

*LOL* Man I miss Aggieland.

I would like to completely agree about the classless clowns' home being a solid training grounds for Deep Ellum's (future) employees.

And please just have everyone be realistic. Mind you the CS city council mandates 'conservative' signage as well (the reason why there is no Joe's Crabshack (or... if one has actually moved in, why there it doesn't have the normal sign)).... you can complain if you want... but I don't want the damn down to look like it's been invaded by t-sips. Rock Prarie Rd becoming civilized is about as many changes as I want for the foreseeable future.

C'mon, doesnt everyone go to Hooters for the wings?

goodriddance189

YES!!!!!

i was at some run down honky tonk last weekend, and i heard some dude talking about how it was opening in august. finally i have somewhere to go with all my buddies that my annoying gf won't tag along to. YES!!!

i've never had Hooters wings (i always go there for the beer and broads), but we have a Buffalo Wild Wings already. decent place, decent blondes, decent beer, and decent wings.

don't worry College Station, once y'all finally get running water, stop lights, and paved roads i bet you'll get a lot of new businesses! i actually heard that they wanted to get a Hooters in town, but there's some city ordinance against orange buildings? if they came, they would be forced to paint maroon? is this true?

oh well, at least someone in town finally paid off the mafia (ahem, i mean Baptist church) to get a Hooters.

I have never been to Hooters.

Hey Mars-

I'm an old cav jock by the way, and not much could smell worse than good old fiddlers green. Ahh, memories of "bobbing for horse apples." As far as the limits on orange signs go, I don't think there is an ordinance per se, but I know companies w/ ornage logos can feel a lot of heat. The Home Depot that was built a couple of years ago was rumored to be putting their sign up in maroon letters, but the corporate office wouldn't go for that. They do have a huge maroon awning though, a nice gesture.

I live in southwest Fort Worth, TX, have a hooters about 5 minutes from my house. There are several in the metroplex... but the one I go to is in south arlington, tx. they lost their liquor license about 8 months ago or so, so now they give you 2 FREE BEERS, and you don't even have to buy any food (at least no waitress has ever made me). Its also nice because generally if you make it really clear to the waitress that you will tip her big, she will keep the beers coming all night. (at least thats what i remember from the last time i drank there, even left with her phone number on the back of my receipt for the $1.99 basket of fries I ordered.) of course after 11 beers each for a friend and myself, we tipped her about $30, about 1.50 a beer.

I'm not sure it's an ordinance against orange buildings... But I will say that CS has the only Maroon Whataburger that I've ever seen in my life (ok... not all of the stripes are maroon, but one is & it has an aTm logo on it) - pretty cool.

Hey Mars-
I'm class of 02 - any chance I would have bumped into you here in CS? I was in F2, PMC, Ol Ags, and pretty heavy into fish camp for 4 years.

There are several Hooters in my Home! Four in one room and six more ( tiny ) in another plus the pair I sleep with!


Keeps the gas anbd electric bill down in the winter.

The full name of the place is "Buffalo Wild Wings & Weck." The one I used to go to in Michigan taught their waitresses this annoying poem they had to recite whenever someone asked, "What the heck is WECK?" but the short answer is, it's a type of bread used on some of their sandwiches.

They just got sick of getting the question all the time, so changed the name to "Buffalo Wild Wings" while keeping the BW3 so they didn't lose their initial customer base.

That's probably more than you wanted to know, isn't it?
