Sexy Mascot Can Stay At Eatery If Curves Covered

A curvaceous, scantily clad mannequin can keep her spot outside a Cincinnati area barbecue joint, but local officials want her to cover up a bit.

The life-size figure stands as a busty beacon outside a restaurant in suburban Reading (REH'-ding) owned by Kenny Tessel. He told zoning officials at a hearing Wednesday night that the advertising gimmick has boosted business 40 percent.

The 5-foot-10 mannequin is on the street wearing a bikini top and tight short-shorts, though Tessel brought her to the hearing draped in a long, sleeveless gray T-shirt.

The board said Tessel may continue to use the figure only if it's dressed more modestly in front of the restaurant, too.

He plans to appeal.

Did they use Lucy Pinder as the mould for that mannequin or what?

I wonder how many customers decided to eat there thinking it was a real person, but then by the time they realized it was a fake figure, they were disappointed but still decided to eat there anyway...
