A nun in Hooters



A nun, badly needing to use the
restroom, walked into a local Hooters. The place was hopping
with music and loud conversation and every once in a while
'the lights would turn off.'
Each time the lights would go out,
the place would erupt into cheers. However, when the
revelers saw the nun, the room went dead silent.

She walked up to the bartender, and
asked, 'May I please use the restroom? The bartender
replied, 'OK, but I should warn you that there is a
statue of a naked man in there wearing only a fig leaf.'
'Well, in that case, I'll just look the other
way,' said the nun.
So the bartender showed the nun to
the back of the restaurant. After a few minutes, she came
back out, and the whole place stopped just long enough to
give the nun a loud round of applause!
She went to the bartender and said,
'Sir, I don't understand. Why did they applaud for
me just because I went to the restroom?' 'Well, now
they know you're one of us,' said the bartender,
'Would you like a drink?'
'No thank you, but, I still
don't understand,' said the puzzled nun. 'You
see,' laughed the bartender, 'every time someone
lifts the fig leaf on that statue, the lights go out..

Now, how about that drink?'

My mother told me about that many years ago. It supposedly was in the Deuchin Room at a major NY hotel. The room was named after a famous jazz musician, Eddie Deuchin. I'm guessing at the spelling. Maybe someone here knows the story.
