PA Middle School Busts Out Of Boredom
By Wyatt Earp | June 1, 2011
For the first time in my adult life of a Pennsylvania public school.
For one group of central Pennsylvania eighth-graders, a recent field trip to Baltimore included lunch at Hooters.
The Berwick Middle School students were visiting the National Aquarium last week. Chaperones took them to various restaurants for lunch because the group of 100 was too large for a single place. Superintendent Wayne Brookhart says that while he wishes the group’s coed chaperones had chosen another restaurant, he has not received any complaints from parents.
Good for the superintendent for not being an over-officious jerk like so many others in his profession. No one complained, and the male students took an interest in women’s studies and restaurant management.

My God, it’s Hooters. I take our baseball ream there every year.. Little League baseball players, 11 and 12. The moms and dads come, too!!! They have great wings…
Why is this big news?

I love Hooter’s, big or small they’re all good………what?……….Nevermind (again)…..
Seriously, when I saw this earlier I wondered how long it would be before Wyatt posted it…….

The trip was actually a tool for recruiting potential football players for Berwick High. “See what we do for you? If you play football, you’ll have chicks who make Hooters girls look like stick figures.”

Cool School trips must just be what us folks in the Northern part of the State do. Yesterday we took East Lycoming’s 6th grade to the gun range for their field trip. While we did not have the boobies, we did have Primitive Survival Skills Class
Up here, boobies AND guns, together, have to wait until High School.
Be safe (and sometimes, you want recoil).

When I finally have a boy I’m taking him to Hooters. If he is awkward, stunned and drooling or remarks on the interior design I’ll know. God bless his future little heart either way.

Naked Daytona wings and a couple-a-cold ones for me please!!

OK, I’ll be serious here, since others have brought the funny.
Taking 8th graders to a strip club? Outta line.
Taking 8th graders to Hooters? No biggie.
Hooters to me is the equivalent of a PG-13 movie.
No big whoop.
Not where I would take my girl to propose to…
Nor would I expect my priest to take me there for counseling…
But it ain’t a big deal.
Oh and jcjimi?
That don’t mean he’s gay, you retard. That just means he’s a nerd.
OK, the interest in interior design IS a dead give a way.
But plenty of heterosexual horndogs were nervous and awkward around the ladies, especially when they were teenagers.
Damnit, you people should be paying me for this advice.

Oh, and jcjimi? I’m just funnin’ with you.

Danny – I was thinking the same thing. Non-story.
LDIV – Hey, it’s what I do. Post about babes.
Bob – God bless football.
Robert B. – Yeah, my school trips were never like this.
Scott – Damn, I gotta move.
Old NFO – Hooters has great wings . . . and breasts and thighs.
Jcjimi – I love women, but at that age I was just staring dumbfounded . . . but I didn’t notice the interior design.
Roger – A couple for you? Lousy drunk!
Ed – Oh, a Hooters proposal would solidify the AoS lifestyle, though.

ed,
Stunned awkward and drooling is how I act NOW. I meant that as the hetero giveaway.
I drool often. There. I said it.

Wyatt:
Hey, never too young to “bone up” on Biology…they’re all gonna wind up taking it in high school eventually.
Sure isn’t like the Academy of Science and Franklin Institute trips WE used to take.
(that damn stuffed SHARK on the wall at the stairs used to scare the hell outta me)
Stay safe out there.

jcjimi – We’re Morons. We all drool often.
Bob G. – I hated the walk-through heart. Freaked me out.

I wish Hooters was around when I was in High School
