One such business is in Waco, Texas and it is a new burger joint. The name of the new burger joint is “Fat Ho Burgers”.
The New Joint
The lady who started the new burger joint wanted a cool name for her place and also something that you will never forget. Well mission accomplished with the name Miss Evans.
Miss Evans also picked the name of the place as a joke to lighten the mood during such hard times in Texas. “The economy is bad. Somebody gotta keep a sense of humor around here.”
Miss Evans
According the news site where I read this story, business there is doing great. And if Waco was not so far away from me, I would come in and get the “super fly ho with cheese” and a “tiny ho” meal for each of my kids.
My hat is off to you Miss Evans for standing up in the middle of a recession and in the bible belt of Texas (who protested over the name of the place) and coming up with a creative name for your burger joint. I hope your business is a huge success.
A Fat Ho Customer
Edited To Add: Some of you asked for their website with the menu, so here you go.
And some of you also asked if they sold stuff (like t-shirts) and apparently they do see stuff and you can get it here.
I hope so too, wouldn't mind a fat ho burger.
ReplyDeleteI have yet to go there yet I live here. Sad. I've heard it's a really good burger joint. I think I might have to go kidnap my lil bro and go there!
ReplyDeleteFat Ho Customers look happy and fit in with the brand name.
ReplyDeleteWell that name will definitly get more ppl to eat there, i know i would go there just cos of the name :)
ReplyDeleteWhy did the religious people complain about it? They don't have to eat there and it's not like she called it Fuck Burger.
ReplyDeletei'm equal parts delighted & appalled. way to go, ms evans!
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHA!! I love her. I wish I lived in Texas so I could eat a Fat Ho Burger. She is full of win and burgers.
ReplyDeleteLove it. One of many reasons I am proud to be a Texan. The day we can't have a good laugh, we're screwed.
ReplyDeleteas long as the food is good... I don't care what the name is.
ReplyDelete@ Lurker, exactly.
ReplyDelete@ Laynee, you need to go and report back to us.
@ Lass, I didn't want to say that, but thank you.
@ Djech, that is what I was thinking as well.
@ Tony, I am not sure why. But that area is known for that type of religious nut.
@ Sherilin, same here.
@ Cake, I do as well. If it was closer to me I would go for sure.
@ Thomas, I agree.
@ Rosie, yep same here.
OT...Never heard of it and I hope she franchises! Good for her and her ho burgers.
ReplyDeleteGood for you Miss Evans! And not for nothing, but a super fly ho with cheese sounds delicious right about now!
ReplyDeleteThey should have a happy meal in a little 'trunk'-like box, and call it the "Junk in the Trunk".
ReplyDeleteIf you do go there PLEASE get a menu to post!
ReplyDeleteHehehe... I would have told the people protesting that it's an Asian inspired name and thanks to not be discriminating.
ReplyDeleteThat being said, I think it's a great name for a restaurant.
@ Barb, I hope so as well.
ReplyDelete@ D'Artagnan, yes it does sound great right now.
@ Kev, oh now there is an idea.
@ Laughingmom, will do.
@ Yandie, that would have been smart. I agree, it is a great name.
Haha, I heard about that on =3 youtube channel. Too funny.
ReplyDeleteI love it! I think it's cool to be different and I bet the burgers are yummy!

And the address of this place is...??? You can't leave us hanging like that! After Pimp Burgers closed up last year, I need a new place to frequent! lol
ReplyDeleteI wish her all the best. Way cool and totally thinking outside her box.
ReplyDeleteToo funny... If I'm ever in town I'll have to swing by the Fat Ho Burger and check it out... my question is what shows up on your credit card statement? Charges to Fat Ho???? Married guys be ware...
ReplyDeleteI demand t-shirts that say "I'm a fat ho!"
ReplyDelete@ Brandy, I agree it is too funny.
ReplyDelete@ Ally, I love it as well and I also bet that they are great.
@ Texa, I have no idea what the address is, I just know it is in Waco.
@ Nubian, I wish her all the best as well.
@ Zack, that is a great question.
@ Lost, I would like a t-shirt as well.
So, does this make Ms. Evans the "Chief Fat Ho"?
ReplyDeleteLet's hope they don't make t-shirts that say "I Love Eating Fat Ho's".
Oh, and remember folks, eating too many fat ho's makes you a super fat ho!
I give her credit for trying to lighten the mood, even though I don't like the word ho. But if Santa can say it in excess, all power to her.
ReplyDeletexoRobyn
come grab a burger at fat ho's - ha, great name, certainly easy to remember -
ReplyDeleteKudos to her and her name!
ReplyDeleteThere ain't nothing that says finger licking better than a Fat Ho.
Hold the cottage cheese please!!!
@ Empress, I am not sure. Hey now I would buy that t-shirt.
ReplyDelete@ Robyn, you are right about Santa.
@ Ryan, yes it is very easy to remember.
@ Bushman, I agree.
That is absolutely hysterical! What's a good business if you can't have fun with it? At least she's enjoying what she does, having some fun, and making some money. Now if only one of us had thought of it first...
ReplyDeleteAva
What kind of filling can I get with that?
ReplyDelete@ loans, yes it is very hysterical.
ReplyDelete@ Drake, I am not sure.
I thought it was a Chinese restaurant.
ReplyDeleteKudos to you for inserting "gives rise" and "thinking outside the BOX" in the first paragraph of a post about a "Fat Ho."
The more I think about it, though, the more I think the word is misspelled. Shouldn't a gardening implement be spelled "hoe?" I mean, after all...ohhhhhh...NOW I get it. Never mind.
ReplyDeleteOK, two comments about one post. I'm on a roll.
The name sure does make you think, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteHey isn't this the same Sammich that stays out in the pouring rain at football games? You can go a bit longer for a burger? :)
ReplyDeleteI don't do burgers, but even if I did I don't think I would go there to get one. Maybe it's just me, if she's making money, good for her.
ReplyDeleteI want me some Pimp fries.
ReplyDeleteIf only Texas weren't so very far away.
ReplyDeleteGod I love cheese.
ReplyDelete"You Are What You Eat!" Too funny!
ReplyDeleteNow there's more of a reason for me to go down to Waco to visit family, I'll bet those are the best burgers ever!
@ Al, you crack me up.
ReplyDelete@ Teach, yes it sure does.
@ Copyboy, it might just be.
@ Alessandra, each to his own is a good motto to live by.
@ Toast Man, me too.
@ Dumbass, exactly.
@ Anna, same here.
@ Mom, you should go down and get one.
other items she should include on the menu:
ReplyDelete~ foot-long satisfaction hotdogs [100% all-american beefcake]
~ 6-pack ho-attack [tiny burgers]
~ stripper poles [fries?]
@ Violet, I agree those should be on the menu as well.
ReplyDeleteOMG- A.W.E.S.O.M.E.
ReplyDeleteWhy didn't I think of that?
@ S, I was thinking the same exact thing.
ReplyDeleteI may be wrong, but I think the name will deter people who are actually fat and upset about their weight, since it might evoke a guilt conscience or offend them?
ReplyDelete@ Peace, if some people are detered by a little humor then they probably don't need a good burger.
ReplyDeleteBet the food is fan-friggin-tastic, too!
ReplyDelete@ Virgin, I bet it is as well.
