Topless protesters showed their support at a Maine gay bar after the health department cited it for having bartenders who show too much skin.

According to authorities, the shirtless bartenders at Mainestreet pose a health hazard because they're hairy and they serve food.

But the bar received an outpouring of support Saturday night when hundreds of customers turned up, with many of them topless in support of the hunky waitstaff.

Great. Fine. Looks like I'm never going to sell my armpit nets.
