And now for the sucky one...
Girls Gone Wild is coming to Blacksburg next week, to a restaurant called Oge-Chi's. It's a new place, with supposedly tasty food. But now this happens.
And everyone's up in arms about it. There's an online petition with about 2000-odd sigs on it, Tech's threatening to sue Oge-Chi's for using their trademarks in connection with the event, and Womenspace is going to stage a protest.
While I'm all for porn, Girls Gone Wild is sleazy and tasteless. Their founder's been indicted for tax evasion, and has done other bad things. When girls sued him, and they both settle, he cusses them out. So yeah, a real class act.
Honestly, Oge-Chi's should cancel the event before the rest of the town buries them under a sea of bad publicity and boycotts. I don't plan to eat there any time soon, and I would suggest Technicon (who had their supporting members luncheon there this year) to find a different restaurant.
