Lewisville City Council Bans Redneck Heaven's "Anything But Clothes" Day--Cover Them Boobies!

The Lewisville City Council voted unanimously last night to redefine the city's official definition of nudity, thereby outlawing the body paint, gumballs and various other non-clothes occasionally used to cover the lady parts of servers at Redneck Heaven. We covered this way too extensively yesterday.

The whole episode was instructive, not so much for what it says about the sensibilities of suburban North Texas or the undeniable absurdity of the breastaurant concept but as a case study in how the local media outlets that were all over the story like a fresh coat of body paint cover nudity, in both the literal and figurative sense.

[font color=green]The article continues with titillating details about the coverage this story received from the other news media outlets.

Meanwhile, there will be a lot of disappointed rednecks who won't be able to get breasts with their Bubba Burgers. [/font]

While I am all for freedoms, they are situated in a very family-oriented area. Not just the city, but the whole parking lot, with Costco, Rockfish, Red Lobster, Five Guys, Steak n Shake. If they want to having that sort of dress code, they should consider moving to Harry Hines.

On edit: I saw this on AOL earlier this week. We are just a small city. Nothing to see here, until tig 'ol bitties come into the conversation. And thanks for the humorous take on this story. You've had me cracking up the whole time.

it looks like I didn't make it in time to go to Redneck Heaven though.

I agree with you that the business does not fit in with the other restaurants and retailers in the area. If they were in a stand-alone building with their own dedicated parking lot then it might be more appropriate, but the current situation is a recipe for disaster especially if they do not have any security outside.

Lol well the ladies will still be in bikini tops for the foreseeable future, and from what I've seen, they aren't leaving much to the imagination
