Umm, errr, umm, yeah, we're going to Hooters

Andrew Siciliano is a Fox Sports radio host, as well as one of the personalities who does a Fox Football Fantasy show on Sunday mornings during football season. He also wears a 29 inch inseam.

He is thin, unlike many radio personalities, and one day, during his show, he complained about how difficult it was to find a 30 inch waist with a 29 inch inseam. Apparently, most clothing manufacturers assume people with a 29 inch inseam are on the large size, and so most of the pants are for fat people.

My friend, Sport Psych Detroit, is a big Andrew Siciliano fan, in no small part because of the 29-inch inseam issue that they both share. And so, when Andrew Siciliano announced on has radio program that he would be broadcasting live in Detroit all week long, well, Sport Psych Detroit thought it would be a good chance to meet the man he shares so much in common with.

And so we went. To Hooters. It was the first time I had ever been to a Hooters, and to be honest, as I looked around the restaurant and bar, I don't think I would eat there even if I didn't keep kosher. But, obviously, we weren't there for the food; we were there to talk pants sizes.

I had always thought that when radio programs go on the road, and into bars, they are the center of attention in the bar. But Siciliano, his hot co-host, and his four staffers were sitting around a large table, with some computers, headphones, Gary Baxter from the Cleveland Browns, and no one else. Which meant Sport Psych Detroit could walk right up to Siciliano, and swap pants-shopping horror stories.

And we could get an autograph from Gary Baxter, which he was kind enough to give. So now my oldest has a Gary Baxter autograph on a Hooters coaster.

We stood around there for a while, watching the Pistons on one TV and the Wings on a second TV, before we decided we had enough of Hooters.

I did enjoy when YMCA came on the jukebox, and the Hooters girls all stopped what they were doing, climbed on top of tables, and started dancing. As we left Hooters, we were faced with the question, what next. It was still early, no one had to be home at any time, and we wanted to see more football players.

Downtown or the suburbs, into the heart of the D or Fashionable Ferndale and Royal Oak. We picked downtown, in no small part because this is one of the few weeks since the 1960s that a white person can walk through the city feeling completely safe.

Downtown looked incredible. It was well lit, there was a large police presence, and there was a lot of life downtown. People were walking around, going from bar to bar, and we joined in.

We went to the Hard Rock Cafe, hoping to catch the Best Damn Sports Show, only to find out that it had been taped earlier. We walked through a few bars, into a club, having a drink in some and taking a leak in others.

We saw a few minor celebs, and some football players we didn't recognize. And I have to say, Sean Salisbury looked like a regular drunk 45 year old man when we saw him walking through the Old Shallellegh. Oh, and we ran into Andrew Siciliano again.

We popped into Greektown Casino, played some slots, and looked for football players.

I think that if we had stayed a lot longer, after the parties in town ended and players had a chance to get back downtown after the Pistons game, we might have run into some more players, but we did have to go back home. Our jobs were waiting for us the next morning. And it was after 12.
