Groan. "Maryville restaurant gets national support for signs welcoming GUN owners"

MARYVILLE (WATE) - Shiloh Brew and Chew restaurant in Maryville is getting national attention after the owner put up signs welcoming guns.

Owner Sharma Floyd says she can barely keep up with all of the new business she's getting.

"I've now been overwhelmed. I've now run out of food twice," Floyd said.

The restaurant has been staying open late, and Floyd says she's hiring seven more people this week alone.

"I can honestly say it is the absolute best thing I have done since I've been at Shiloh. It's been incredible for my business."

Before putting the signs up, business was struggling.

"She was almost about to go out of business, and it absolutely turned the business around. I mean the place is packed in there right now," said customer Billy Kidd.
