I mean this was part of the changing tide. The people up in arms over this were rarely going there. Yeah you got Twin Peaks, but they don't have the numbers.

Well they killed themselves when they stopped hiring big titty girls in the arly 2000s. Then they wanted to hire male servers.
shyt like that is why Twin Peaks was created in the first place, they saw Hooters lost the vision and the passion and he wanted to bring it back
In 2005, DeWitt decided to experiment with a new concept that might recapture some of the original buzz of Hooters, creating a "more upscale" version of the bird-themed breastaurant pioneer. DeWitt wanted to offer better food, a full bar, and a trendier, rustic mountain lodge theme, while encouraging waitresses to show more of themselves.

"Hooters just wasn't racy enough," he explained. He seems to have solved that problem, for sure.

This is a really interesting story. It’s less about the outfits and how private equity firms buy and fukk up classic American businesses.

Private equity is fukking up everything.
Dumb take, because Twin Peaks is private equity La Cima group.
Hooters just stopped evolving and for some reason wanted to transition into a family PC brand and it killed them.
300m in loses and probably won't survive the coming restaurant apocalypse, where Red Lobster, Cracker Barrel, and others are going to die.
