Fans react to Long John yet again at Hooters

The 1995 Open champion recently appeared in a photo that Hooters posted. The famous wings company put up a photo of John Daly and his son, John Daly II, surrounded by servers at the table. The famous owl was edited into the background behind Little John.

The photo was captioned “chosen family” in light of the recent Thanksgiving. The fans went on to say how great it was to see John and his son at the restaurant.

They wrote, “This is amazing.” Some also reacted hilariously, pointing out in horror how they were eating wings with forks and calling Daly “Santa”.

Daly and his son sure did look like they enjoyed their Thanksgiving meal with the wings and company at their favorite food stop.

John Daly loves hooters almost as much as golf

It is evident that the two-time major winner is quite fond of the wing’s restaurant. He has been seen dining there on multiple occasions. In fact, recently, soon after the first day of the PGA Championship in October, the 56-year-old headed to Hooters to replenish his lost energy with some wings. He also posted a photo afterwards, surrounded by Hooters’ servers.

His son appears to have inherited his father’s traits. He signed an endorsement deal with Hooters earlier this year. He said, “I have seen my father’s great relationship with Hooters over the years, and I am proud to continue my family’s association with this iconic brand.”

Daly, too, expressed his excitement about his son’s deal. He explained how he was an avid Hooters fan and stated, “This will be a terrific partnership as Hooters is all about authentic fun.” “I am eager to represent the brand and have a great time while doing so.” Daly truly believes that he and Little John are the perfect additions to the Hooters family, and it seems like Hooters shares the same view.
