The Hooters Dude Prank A comedy conversation

I had just finished a corporate comedy gig in Iowa. I called my buddy and fellow comedian Dobie Maxwell to tell him the show went well, and that I was kicking back at Hooters having some wings. Dobie said last time he was in Iowa, he went to a Hooters restaurant and came to the conclusion they should change the name to Udders. I laughed so hard I had Diet Pepsi coming out of my nose (although milk would have been more appropriate).
I guess when you go to Hooters you're expecting hot chicks and wings, not Grandma from The Nutty Professor:
Last summer I read that there was some guy suing Hooters over gender discrimination, because they refused to hire him as a server. Come on! When I'm at Hooters, I'd rather have Grandma Klump bring me my wings than some dude!
When do we draw the line here? A dude protesting Hooters is like the Westboro Baptist Church protesting funerals of our soldiers. Who in their right freaking mind wakes up one day and goes "Here's an idea, let's protest a funeral!? That's like being pro-abortion, then going to an abortion clinic with a posterboard screaming "KILL THAT BABY!"
At any rate, I'm the kind of guy who always needs answers (why is there a W in the word "answer"?) So I recently went to a Hooters in Louisville, KY to find out what customers really thought about the idea of Hooter Dudes. Enjoy.
If only. There are times when I think of God and wonder "Why did Stevie Ray Vaughn and Buddy Holly die in plane crashes, yet the Blue Collar Comedy tour flies safely?
