You probably think those Hooters waitresses who feed you deep fried wings and sour beer are just stupid bimbos in orange shorts, but they are a lot smarter than you think. For example, they can tell the difference between a Toyota and a toy yoda.
PANAMA CITY, Fla. (AP) — A former waitress has settled her lawsuit against Hooters, the restaurant that gave her a toy Yoda doll instead of the Toyota she thought she had won.
Jodee Berry, 27, won a beer sales contest last May at the Panama City Beach Hooters. She believed she had won a new Toyota and happily was escorted to the restaurant’s parking lot in a blindfold.
But when the blindfold was removed, she found she had won a new toy Yoda — the little green character from the Star Wars movies.
David Noll, her attorney, said Wednesday that he could not disclose the settlement’s details, although he said Berry can now go to a local car dealership and “pick out whatever type of Toyota she wants.”
The restaurant’s manager, Jared Blair, has said the whole contest was an April Fools’ joke.
Now, if this was at Fuddrucker’s, I’m pretty sure the waitress would’ve tried to drive off in her new toy yoda. But you can’t pull the wool over a Hooters waitress.
Hooters, toy yoda, toyota
