1. Introduction

First off, as a warm-up, enjoy this as a little tribute to the dearly departed King of Pop.

2. Inappropriate, humiliating, stupid. But kind of fun to watch!
Birthday parties for grade schoolers.

Conor, in training for the rest of his life.

On his 24th birthday, Don violates a bar stool.

Like the announcer says, there are children in this audience! (Probably there celebrating a birthday.)

Deep in the culture of Hooters.

3. Real Talent
Barstool Beer Pour

Chug/Hooters Kiss

4. Transitional Humor
Critical tastelessness.

Who is this joke on?

Claudia nails it.

5. The Wings
Tutorial, in Las Vegas.

Demonstration in Panama City.

Little guy eating 50.

Group gorge on 100. Doesn’t seem like a remarkable achievement, but the pile of bones is still impressive even if it took five guys.

6. It’s A Business
A global franchise, in this case serving the frat-boy section of the expat communities, and the pathetic middle aged native dudes. Hear the girls speak for themselves near the end of this video.

Whether in Shanghai or Burlington, owners shouldn’t mess with the people who control the licensing. They can really hurt you.

Jamming the business line!
