A local’s decision to bring his pet duck to Hooters took the internet by storm, captivating audiences with the heartwarming and unconventional encounter.
The incident took place at a Minnesota Hooters eatery where diners were offered a unique dining experience that was caught on camera.
The video shows Wrinkle the Duck and its owner strolling down the Mall of America before grabbing a bite to eat at the chain restaurant, best known for its scantily clad waitresses and menu of greasy American food.
The edited 11-minute clip was posted to YouTube by “Seducktive,” an account dedicated to Wrinkle that has more than 2 million subscribers.
The unidentified man arrived at the restaurant accompanied by his feathered friend Wrinkle, 3, a transgender duck who is considered “the most famous duck in the world” according to their website.

The caption reads, “People travel from all over to get to the Mall of America so they can go to Hooters and get the best salad in town.” That’s why they call it Hooters because everyone knows owls love salad ! Hooray Hooters! Hooray salad! Hooray Wrinkle!’
The bold move immediately caught the attention of fellow guests and staff, who were initially surprised at the unexpected guest.
What started as an unusual sight quickly turned into an endearing spectacle.
The unconventional customer quickly took center stage as staff gathered around her and snapped videos with their iPhones.
‘Oh dear God! “This is crazy,” exclaimed a Hooters waitress.
Another employee agreed, ‘Oh wow! I love her.’
The man introduced Wrinkle to the women and showed them how to fist punch the duck — which means the human makes a fist and gently bites the duck’s hand.
The man used a stroller to transport the duck around the restaurant so Wrinkle could make her rounds.
Some staff seemed unsure which animal the duck was.

A waitress walked up to the man and said, “I had to see your goose.”
The man looked slightly taken aback and said, “Well, she’s a duck.”
Later in the video, the same woman asked, “It’s a goose?”
Again the man said in what appeared to be a sarcastic tone, “It’s a duck.”
Soon all the Hooters girls ran to the unexpected guest, amused by the surprise appearance.
Wrinkle was served a salad and can be seen in the video happily nibbling on the chopped vegetables prepared by the restaurant staff and seemingly having a feather-licking good time at Hooters.
