Apparently the chairman of Hooters has announced that Hooters Air LLC is making an offer to buy some of the assets of Vanguard.
Personally I think this idea will fall flat. But it sure will provide comedians with lots of great material.

Okay, I'm game:
"As this flight will be passing over water, please acquiant yourself with the use of the numerous flotation devices found on this plane...."

I wonder how long it'll take this airline to go bust.
All they need to do is provide free drinks and onboard gambling and it sounds like a sure bet to me.

This deal will probably come up short shorts.

Think of all the problems they'd solve:
#1: Most people wouldn't mind the secondary screening (some might request it).
#2: More people would pay attention to the safety announcements.
#3: They could make getting delayed enjoyable.
