## Story

The 2024 Hooters Calendar is now available at all Hooters locations. In honor of Hooters’ 40th Anniversary, the calendar includes a commemorative cover wrap, “Showtime,” a celebration of the world-famous Hooters Girl, the iconic image of Hooters for 40 years.

The commemorative showcase painting by famed international artist Fabian Perez is a tribute to all of the Hooters Girls who continue to enhance the image of this brand with beauty and class and also recognizes over 400,000 Hooters Girl Alumni that have made Hooters America’s Neighborhood Oasis since 1983.

It all started on October 4, 1983; and after 40 years is still going strong. All of the 200 women in the calendar work at Hooters restaurants across the country and were selected from thousands of candidates.

The model on the commemorative wrap is Hooters Girl Eden Davis from Abilene, Texas. Featured on the cover of the calendar is Miss Hooters International and 2024 Hooters Calendar cover girl Emily Johnson from Jacksonville, Fla.

The 2024 Hooters Calendar features Hooters Girls from a variety of hometowns across America:

One dollar of every Hooters Calendar sold supports the Kelly Jo Dowd Breast Cancer Research Fund as part of the “Give a Hoot” fundraising efforts in October. Kelly Jo Dowd, an original Hooters girl, the 1995 Hooters Calendar Cover Girl and Hooters General Manager in Palm Harbor succumbed to breast cancer in 2007. Over the years, the calendar has raised over one million dollars.

Hooters of America, LLC, is the franchisor and operator of more than 410 Hooters restaurants in 38 states and 24 countries. Known for its world-famous Hooters Style chicken wings, the first Hooters opened its doors in 1983 in Clearwater, Florida. Expectations were so modest at the time that the simple fact the doors opened was deemed worthy of a toast.

Since then millions have been liberated from the ordinary at Hooters while enjoying great food, fun and one-of-a-kind hospitality that can only be served up by the Hooters Girls. For more information about Hooters visit www.hooters.
