Hooters is one of the best places in the country to sit back and enjoy a cold beer and watch a ballgame with the fellas. There have been a lot of question marks surrounding the popular chain after the news was released that the chain would be filing for bankruptcy.

Hooters has been dealing with financial troubles for a while. Last year, the company tried to manage its $300 million debt by closing about 40 underperforming locations across the U.S. States like Rhode Island, Virginia, Florida, Kentucky, and Texas saw Hooters restaurants shut down as part of cost-saving efforts.

On Tuesday, we received an update from Hooters of Louisiana, and it is quite the positive news for Hooters lovers here in Louisiana...
