Give A Hoot About Our Youth


Hooters school trip lands teach in trouble
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHOENIX (AP) — An Arizona music teacher whose students performed at a presidential inauguration event is on administrative leave after taking 40 high school students to a Hooters restaurant.

Paradise Valley school district spokeswoman Judi Willis says choir director Mary Segall accompanied the students to a performance in downtown Phoenix last week, and during the outing, they ate lunch at Hooters.

Willis says Segall explained that the restaurant, known for its waitresses’ somewhat revealing attire, was the only place that could accommodate a group of that size. But district officials believe there were other options for lunch in the area.

It gets a little old hearing up tight people talk about Hooters like its a bordello. Trust me most of the girls on this field trip probably wear clothes much more revealing than orange shorts and tank tops to Teen Night every weekend. Hooters is just a restaurant and by comparison the offshoot restaurants with scantily clad women are much more lude. Get over it.

P.S. - I have been to the Downtown Pheonix Hooters before the Lakers/Suns game a few years back and the kids were treated to some pretty nice scenery. Not sure what the lunch shift looks like but I can't imagine its too bad.
