Hooters Chairman Dies at 69

Robert Brooks was found dead in his home on the weekend. It is still unsure how the chairman of the Hooters chain of stores died, but an autopsy will be conducted this coming week. Brooks was 69 years old.

The Hooters restaurant began back in 1983 and quickly spread across the country and globally, to it's current position of more than 400 stores. Hooters became famous or infamous for the scantily clad waitresses that left little to the imagination.
