Man Celebrates His 100th Birthday at Hooters

Posted by Emily Farris

Wouldn't you?

John Persinger celebrated his 100th birthday at Hooters yesterday. And his wife, Vi, who died a while ago, whouldn't have minded, either. Apparently the couple were regulars at their local breast and boobs establishment, in Iowa. And he has a good sense of humor about it all:

"One guy at the church said, 'Didn't you hear the message this morning about looking at girls and everything?' I told him I was going to Hooters to eat chicken wings."

It's the truth, but maybe not the whole truth. Persinger has been known to ask the women if they'd like a 100-year-old kiss.

Aw. He's so cute!
