Show Me's- SE Indy

[IndyMonkey]

Publicity like this is good for the restraunt.

People are goof balls if they think protesting this will slow or stop the restratraunt from opening.

 

[Roadie]

Let me preface my post by saying that I am a Christian. That being said, I think that protests like this by other Christians are not only ludicrous, but harmful to the image of Christ.
There are so many better ways Christians can use their energy that are MUCH more beneficial to the community than by protesting a restaurant whose waitresses wear more than many high school girls.

I would urge the Pastor in the article to re-direct his time and effort into something actually worthwhile, like serving the poor perhaps?

Gee it sounds like a few zealots trying to impose their will on the many! Where have I heard this before? I think they'll have a hard time denying a liquor license based on the surrounding business' that hold liquour licenses, and as far as the scantily clad women (oh my gosh), it would be entertaining to see how many of these hypocrites will patronize the place when the wife is out of town. Yes, I am a Hooters regular, once a week, and I've even (gasp) taken my GF in with me. They were running the "C" team that day, she wasn't impressed.

And hear I thought Republicans were business friendly.

The issue here is that they are putting this business in near a "nice" and "expensive" neighborhood. All of the Hooters in town are near apartment complexes and lower income neighborhoods, who might not have the time to devote to stopping a business from going in.
My in-laws live in McFarland Farms, and I don't personally see an issue, but I understand some property owner's reservations about having a business with a certain market draw moving in 1/4 mile down the road. I am glad to see that people are still getting involved in their local government. The bottom line is: the values the ACTIVE members of the community are going to influence the enitre community, so GET INVOLVED!!!

Cote said he chose the restaurant name based on Missouri's motto of the "Show Me State."

While my belief is "live and let live"...if people don't want it, it will flop...I find it humorous the company actually believes people will buy their reason the name of the establishment was chosen. We all really know why...

SWEET, then I can go there on my lunch break!
You sir are a great thinker!

Just found out folks are throwing a tantrum over the Show Me's.
They don't want it there. Isn't this location in a heavy commercial(hotels and stores) area? Are there homes nearby?
Aren't there already a few Hooters stores in Indy?

Yes to all (lot's of nice apartment's in the area and maybe homes). It really is a nice area back in there.

The Hooter's is on 31 and it is closer to the lower income side of town.... and the homes are a bit of the walk. Everything in the show me's area is an easy walk to everything.

Personally I don't go to those kind's of places and I am not back there much so I don't car but it is a nice area with low crime and pretty quiet...... I think a show me's or Hooter's would change that.

Id walk threw that area at night no problem.

SE Indy is getting a Show Me's.
Kinda like a Hooters with better food.
I'm plumbing the place.I'll Be in Indy soon.

If the food at the Show Me's in Terre Haute is indicative of the chain, then the food at Hooters is a LOT better.

The food at Show Me's sucks.

Guess what: I DON'T CARE.

I'm still going back every chance I get.

I hope I get "Tiff" as my waitress every time. If I don't, I DON'T CARE, I'm still going back.

Come on it sits next to an Interstate that makes an excessive amount of noise 24/7.

It is a restaurant not a strip bar. The place will be packed full of 16 to 45 year old white males.

How exactly would anything change??? There is already a Cburger n Paradise there that is little more than a bar and has live music quite often? Both Carabas and Texas Roadhouse have bars, and Oh wait BJ's is a bar.... Hell, I wish they'd move it to my end of Southport, near 37. Show me proof how places such as hooters or this Show Me's create more crime or problems.

That's a good point.......... I guess it comes down to how it look's to everyone. A bar is one thing, a place called hooters with girl's wearing low cut top's and short short's is another when it comes to the apperance of a place.

I also think that a bar in Roadhouse is not like a bar bar, you don't often see people coming out of places like Roadhouse trashed and peeing on people's car's.

You and I must hang out at different bars. Yours sounds like a lot more fun.

Another new restauraunt.

If the permit for the the Show Me's doesn't pass, I have a group of investors lined up to start a new chain of "Blow Me" restauraunts in the area. Is any one else interested?

Once I watched a guy try and pee on a cop car..... with a cop in the car..... that did not go over well....... That was the last FInal 4 that was here.

They still have a chance to appeal haha but I would only be interested if the fine looking lady in your avatar was working there

 

[Nutz]

Wow. That article made me vomit. So much for small government Republicans. Eye Candy? Interesting that he mentions the 500....considering its biggest draw is a stripper/driver named Danica and the chance to see some drunk chicks.

In addition, "liquor license" are the biggest piece of puritanical bullhockey government regulation since it was legal to stone your wife.
