Elderly residents of the villages are fighting over plans to bring a Hooters to the Florida retirement community

Elderly residents of the villages are fighting over plans to bring a Hooters to the Florida retirement community

There’s some drama going on at the nursing home.

If you don’t know The Villages, it’s actually the most famous retirement community in America. The community is located in central Florida and has a population of approximately 80,000 people, 80% of whom are over the age of 65.

And while The Villages are known as “America’s Friendliest Hometown,” they are sometimes referred to as “America’s STD Capital.”

Yes, apparently the elderly in Florida are getting crazier and crazier.

And what better place for a Hooters party than in a community full of horny old men, right?

The Breastaurant-based chain recently announced its first location in The Villages, signing a lease for a site in the southwestern corner of the sprawling senior living community.

But not all retirees are excited about the wings… or the breasts.

A resident named Maddy wrote an op-ed in the local newspaper expressing her dismay over the arrival of Hooters and the destruction of their community:

“We love living here in such a beautiful community. The community is well maintained with beautiful golf courses. I think Hooters is a tacky restaurant and who goes there? Golfers, grandparents taking their children and grandchildren?

“I don’t think it’s a good match and it will eventually close.”

Damn Maddy, what a party pooper you are.

Another resident, Barbara, also criticized the “dirty” restaurant coming to The Villages:

“What think tank thinks a Hooters is a good fit for a senior living community? If I wanted to live with trash, I would have moved to a messy place.”

Barbara, you live in the STD capital of America. Sit back and relax.

Another editorial from Kimberly got to the heart of the matter: She’s not a fan of the old dudes in The Villages who bring their grandkids to look at boobs. (Because I’m sure only the grandkids want to go…)

“First of all, the food at Hooters is subpar. They claim that people are drawn there for their ‘wings’. Maybe that’s a new word for BOOBS. We need more exclusive, unique restaurants in The Villages.

Secondly, I foresee Hooters bringing more outsiders into our community. Not the higher caliber of people.

Thirdly, it will be another opportunity that attracts and ‘facilitates’ alcoholism, as the male customers will sit and drink longer, just to catch a glimpse of young, fuller breasts in their faces and Daisy Duke shorts with their buttocks hanging out.

What decent grandparent would entertain their grandchildren in such an occasion?

This is promoted as a “retirement community.” Not Spring Break, Las Vegas, Fort Lauderdale or Miami Beach.”

But a grandpa named Sam fights for his right to go to Hooters and knock back a cold one while he watches… the football games, and he even praises the breastaurant for all their charity work (which is clearly what the restaurant chain is most known for). And he even named Maddy:

“A lady named Maddy wrote a letter to the editor saying that Hooters coming to The Villages is trashy. Hooters has given millions to cancer facilities. I wonder what Maddy thinks about City Fire, a meat market where people go at night to date the opposite sex. How many arrests have been made at night with golf carts of people going to City Fire, where one lady died in an accident? Maddy needs to look into things a little bit more.”

I guess we’ll just have to wait and see whether the Karens… and Barbaras and Maddys… get their way, or whether Sam can enjoy the view from his local Hooters while supporting their noble mission to cure cancer.
