Little trouble in Big Beaver

Troy, Michigan -- the Hooters City -- that might become the nickname of a Detroit suburb after the restaurant chain, fighting the town's attempt to keep it from opening a new outlet there, decided to blackmail the town by opening two branches of Hooters -- making it "the only non-resort city of its size" to have two of the diners.

Apparently the restaurant chain, distinguished (only) by its busty, scantily-clad waitresses and double-entendre name, has vowed to keep its original outlet open until the city agrees to grant the new, larger store a liquor license. But the best part of the story is the name of the district where the new outlet is located: Big Beaver.
