It's 7:08. No familiar faces. No one OCing.
Nice small group of 6 of us. No OC'er, but good company and exception scenery for Hooters...
There wasn't a bouncer and Hooters follows state law on OCing firearms. Which means that they allow OC as does the statebof Michigan. And Freak, you said you had to go to watch Mythbusters, Just remembered that.
Please provide some documentation on this. You are a newer member here & it seems that your statement above conflicts with the statement made by sprinklerguy28 in post #4 of this thread that they are ANTI OC/CC! So which is it? We don't want to give people bad or outdated info. that jams them up if they go anyways correct?
Thanks for any clarity you can provide Helljumper09
Response from Mike McNeil, VP of Marketing, Hooters of America (1/27/11 1709):
Dear Mr. Horner,
Thank you for your e mail concerning your experience in our Kalamazoo Michigan location. As for our policy concerning firearms in Hooters locations we do not have one. It is our practice to follow the laws in the respective states we do business in. Towards that end our managers are instructed that should questions arise about an armed guest they should have the local law enforcement authorities make the determination if a guest is in compliance. It is my understanding that is what happened in your case. The situation of guest entering our locations armed is something that happens so rarely it is not practical to train managers in how to deal with it. I have worked for Hooters for 20 years and been to our units all over the world and I have never felt my safety required carrying a weapon.
Again thanks for your communication and hopefully I answered your question.

i look at it this way...as long as they dont complain,why should we? regardless of actual policy,it seems that at least this location has no issues with sober customer carry.
