Hooters Hotel goes bust

Hooters Hotel & Casino is packing up the 1985-era orange shorts, the Reebok sneakers, and the chicken-wing-and-Dom-Perignon combo platter.

The hotel that was more strip mall than Las Vegas Strip will soon shutter, to be remodeled, rebranded, and reopened later this year as a luxury boutique hotel. Alas, we hardly knew ye.

A Hooters Hotel was always a questionable proposition. Vegas isn’t exactly short on supply, so to speak, for those in the market for skin. A Hooters-themed hotel might work elsewhere, say, for those channeling their inner Dan Marino while driving the highways of Indiana, but not in Vegas.

And yes, I admit, I really posted about this so I could use that headline.

    Maybe it would have been a success if they used boob-shaped pillows.
