HOOTERS opens its 1st bowling center

HOOTERS has opened its first bowling lounge in Renton, Washington.

And speaking about attractive female staff (see previous story (www.whitehutchinson.com/ article106.shtml#article) ),  a HOOTERS’ franchisee in Washington state has opened a HOOTERS (www.hooters.com/ home.aspx) unlike any of its kind in the chain of over 430 units. The new HOOTERS is complete with a casino, restaurant and, for the first time ever, a bowling lounge.

The new casino-bowl-restaurant combo location in Renton, WA opened on Tuesday, October 27th following renovations to the former Cascade Lanes. Remodeled features to the 29,000sf facility included 24 newly refurbished and modernized lanes; over 50 42" LCD flat panel TVs; 15 table games in a 4,000sf casino; as well as HOOTERS’ signature orange and white motif.

"I think that bowling is a quintessentially American form of entertainment, just like HOOTERS," said Ed Pilarz, president of Altium Development Group (altiumdg.com/ ) , parent company of the new Renton franchise. "You bowl with your buddies, you bowl with the girls next door. It's unpretentious fun. Now pair that with a casino, great food and fun HOOTERS Girls. What more could you want? Everyone we've talked with in Renton is really excited, and I think proud, to have the very first HOOTERS bowling lounge."
