Hooters is coming to the Holy Land.
The U.S. restaurant chain will open its first branch in Israel this summer, in the city of Tel Aviv.
"I strongly believe that the Hooters concept is something that Israelis are looking for," Ofer Ahiraz, who owns the Hooters franchise planned for Israel, tells Reuters. "Hooters can suit the Israeli entertainment culture."

So it's something the Israelis are clamoring for?
I say it's long overdue. It just goes to show-So you are the birthplace of three of the predominant religions in the world, a seat of one of the oldest civilizations in the world, the very crucible of the age-old struggle between the best and worst of mankind's strivings-as a culture, you're still nowhere without a Hooters.

Are there any bibical scholars out there? Is there in fact, as Allen suggested, any reference to Hooters in the Book of Revelation?

Revelation 12:34: "And a great orange beast arose in the West. And it had two large breasts and came to the Son of Gilead on a white horse bearing chicken wings."
