Hooters of Rockville abruptly closed yesterday, more than a month earlier than originally announced. The bar was due to close November 1
after reaching a deal with Montgomery County to not renew its liquor license. That agreement followed the tragic incident in which a patron of the popular Rockville Pike restaurant struck and killed County police officer Noah Leotta after consuming alcohol there.
The driver pled guilty after the wreck, and the future of the restaurant was in doubt prior to the deal being worked out with a Hooters lawyer.
All signage at Hooters was gone by yesterday evening, with a ghostly imprint of their famous owl logo still visible on the window despite its removal.
Many restaurants and bars will suddenly pull the plug, without a warning when they are in trouble. This comes as no surprise.
ReplyDeleteWhere have you been, they've been doing this for decades, just ask any wait staffer.
ReplyDeleteAwww, now that Hooters is closed, where is Robert gonna go to have women actually talk to him? At least Good Guys is still open, but that's in DC
ReplyDeleteCould it relocate to somewhere else in Montgomery County?
ReplyDeleteCould another restaurant tenant or a different type of tenant take its place?
