"Two Hooters restaurant casinos are scheduled to open in the next few weeks in Renton and South Park, and the debate raging in some quarters is not over how short the waitresses' shorts will be.
Instead, people are divided over whether Hooters is too upscale for working-class neighborhoods where the locals bond over $2 happy-hour beers.
"Some people think it will go bust in a heartbeat," said longtime Renton resident Liana Angeles, a regular at the R Bar, which sits across a strip-mall parking lot from the former Cascade Lanes & Casino that is scheduled to open next month as a Hooters restaurant, casino and bowling alley."
