Man Sues Hooters for the Right to be a, "Hooters Boy!"

Inside of a Hooters restaurant in Chattanooga,...Image via WikipediaHouston - Hair Balls - Man Wants To Lick Hooters (In The Courtroom): "Nikolai Grushevski, a man from Corpus Christi, has filed a lawsuit because Hooters wouldn't let him work as a waiter, which we guess would be called a Hooters Boy."

Talk about frivolous lawsuits! Clearly this is an attempt to extort money from the franchise because no one who actually goes to Hooters is gonna want to see this dude dressed up in tight shorts. The amount of court time that will be wasted during this fiasco could be better used on way more important matters.

Unfortunately he has a good chance of winning or at least settling out of court just to save Hooters ongoing legal fees.

This seems like a settlement waiting to happen. I'm actually surprised no one has pursued a law suit like this sooner. There have already been cases for male cheerleaders and female football players (and not just on sitcoms either), so this seems like a logical progession. Hooters is an easy target since they nearly serve the same function as strippers but are still technically waiters. Just imagine what would have happened with cases like this if the Equal Rights Amendment had passed.

These lawsuits happen all the time. Should be interested to see the result.
