FLORIDA’S “STD CAPITAL” OPENED A HOOTERS — RETIREES FLOOD THE ENTRANCE AT GRAND OPENING
This is The Villages, the massive Florida retirement community known for its wild dating scene and party reputation.
They opened a brand new Hooters over the summer and the turnout was immediate.
The second the doors open, a line of older men pushes forward.
Golf polos.
Sneakers and sandals.
Front of the line pressing in first.
Packed before noon.
For a place that already carries the “STD Capital” nickname, the optics are hard to ignore.
Harmless fun? Or exactly what people expect from The Villages?
