Original Hooters Founders Reclaim Florida Locations

The original creators of Hooters have regained control of their Florida restaurants. The chain, known for wings, beer, and its signature Hooters girls, is now operated by Hooters Inc., the company that first opened in Clearwater back in 1983. The move affects at least 11 Florida locations and several in other states. No word on whether or not any local or former local Hooters locations are included in that deal.
