Feast your eyes on Bill Gates surrounded by Hooters girls! I'll bet this is not a sight that you thought you'd ever see. But Bill just wanted to contradict you. Can you blame him? Just watch the innocence and timidity on his face in the middle of this veritable Hooters Fest. Or maybe it's just the sun in his eyes... Or maybe it's the half bent over Hooters girls... with very very generous... smiles! Oh well...

Warren Buffett is in the left side corner. The look on his face is priceless. Obviously he's enjoying this far more than Bill, but still Gates is in the center of the photograph. The other “old men” in the image, redefining the term “grandparent”, are members of the Board of Directors for Berkshire Hathaway, Buffett's company.

The big surprise here is that, among what roughly seems to be a square meter of cleavage, the focus is on two 50+ men. And then, these two are no ordinary men, and certainly no ordinary presences at a Hooters restaurant. William Henry Gates III and Warren Edward Buffett are the two wealthiest men in the known universe, according to Forbes Magazine in 2006.

On Friday, October 20, 2006, Bill and Warren have been presented with Hooters VIP Cards at a Hooters Restaurant in Kansas City, Kansas. The cards allow them to eat for free at any Hooters restaurant across the US. The image featured at the bottom was taken in order to be transformed into a Christmas card.

“It was an honor to have these powerful individuals dine in my store” commented Jason Fetters, General manager of the Hooters visited by the world's richest men. “Clearly these guys can go anywhere they want to. The fact that they picked Hooters hopefully says something about the strength of our brand.”
