Coolest Teacher Ever

Music teacher, Mary Segall accompanied 40 students to a performance in downtown Phoenix. Then she took the students to a local restaurant for lunch. That would have been fine except the restaurant chosen was Hooters. The teacher claims it was the only place they could get seated due to the size of the group. School officials don't buy it though, so Ms. Segall is on administrative leave. She is retiring in January and the district won't say if she will return to the classroom before then or not. Interestingly, this teacher and some of her students performed at one of President Obama's inauguration events. I'm guessing lunch was provided that day.

Hooters' logo is an owl, if memory serves. The waitresses are chosen for their ability to preform their jobs well and look good while doing it. (Remember when airline stewardesses used to fit that description?) So, where is the (collective) board of education's mind running to?

Why am I getting the feeling that Stephen Morphey is trolling this site? His links keep going to oddball sites that may (or may not) contain info/data on these R4 cards.

i was under the impression(obviously mistaken) that the hooters girls worked topless.

They are hand selected for looking like cheerleaders and wear tight clothes. So sadly, no they aren't topless. At least they aren't here. And if they are elsewhere, I feel robbed.

Ventured there for lunch once, too... all I got was gut-rot from their gawd-awful food!

kind of like chucky cheese, the pizza is horrible because it doesn't matter, people don't come there for great food. there is a totally different draw.
