- Jezebel.com's Erin Gloria Ryan
Some may remember Erin Gloria Ryan's article 10 Reasons Why Ryan Lochte Is America’s Sexiest Douchebag on Gawker-owned website Jezebel. She wrote what everyone was thinking and the article went viral. Now she's in Tampa for the RNC — she just wrote an article called "Everyone at this Hooters is terrible and I will die in my hotel: Tales from Tampa — and last night she showed up at Wonkette's meetup at MacDinton's in South Tampa.
Arielle Stevenson: So what do you think of Tampa so far?
Erin Gloria Ryan: I've spent time in Miami and it reminds me of a smaller and less douchey Miami.
What have you done so far?
I spent two hours at Hooters this afternoon. It was packed with all the people playing hooky from the convention.
Who was there?
Mostly dudes. I was the only girl at the bar. It kind of devolved into a creeper stare-off.
