If Mayor Bob Filner wants to nibble on Hooters hot wings, he’ll have to take his sticky fingers someplace else.
San Diego Republican Party director Francis Barrazza noticed an interesting sign in the window of a Rancho Bernardo Hooters restaurant:
RT @palaciosd: Wow. RT @FrancisBarraza: My local @hooters won't serve Bob #Filner. #stepintoawesome #respect #lunch pic.twitter.com/amscHA3Ddz

Bam! And what makes it even more awesome is that apparently, this was a city-wide decision.
@MissAlexBell apparently all of them. According to my server, corporate decision. So everywhere. I'm in RB.

@starnewseditor @Hooters RB but the server said its every location.

@BuzzFeedAndrew yup. Just finishing lunch at hooters. Apparently it was a corporate decision for the San Diego zone.

From a Hooters in San Diego’s Gaslamp Quarter:

Update:
Last week, Glenn Beck urged San Diego business owners to condemn Filner’s behavior and download signs to post in their windows. San Diego Hooters proprietors took him up on it!
@FrancisBarraza @Hooters Ha! @glennbeck made that sign!

Update:
The official word from Hooters is that the Filner ban didn’t come from the top, but the signs can stay.
Our Hooters Girls in San Diego have spoken. Not a corporate gig, but we support our girls. #StepIntoAwesome
