I was eating with friends at a Hooters around 2006 or thereabouts, and totally as a joke I complained about their "911" hot wings, telling the waitress that I was offended by their appropriation of our "sacred tragedy 9/11" to name their hottest wings after. She got all wide-eyed and said "oh no no no no no no no" and went running off to get her manager, who came and apologized profusely and told me they were named after the 911 phone number and not 9/11. He comped our entire table's bill and gave me four $50 gift certificates as well - it was too late for me to back out of the joke at that point. TBF I still have those gift certificates somewhere, but it was no real hardship to not use them because Hooters is pretty fucking awful.
