If Hustler comes in strong, it will provide real competition for a lot of the mediocre clubs that refuse to provide decent service. Currently, high end clubs are real rip offs. Maybe Hustler will provide value for the dollar.
G-R-E-A-T: More competition lowers the pricing structure further. At this rate, it won't be long before the next club to open offers drive thru "Happy Endings".
I still remember when Hustler was asking for a bailout in the porn industry. They are using their brand to expand more into SCs. I wonder what is more lucrative for them? porn sales or SCs?
The Hustler Clubs are owned by DejaVu. They license the name from you know who. They run a nice club but it can sometimes be too pretentious. I know the Hustler Club's original $30 dances in Cleveland didn't go over big. Corporate was stubborn for a long time but the market drove the price down to $20--credit a bad bad economy in N.E.Ohio. Had some good times there before it closed, but what I didn't like was the corporate rule book approach to running the club. For example, corporate rules dictated that a bird dogger would pass through the private dance area past every booth at the start of each song. Don't know if that goes on in other cities' Hustler Clubs, but they never varied from it in C-town. Bouncer types seemed more goon squad like in Hustler and other brand name corporate clubs. I'll probably check out the new Detroit club to see if things are any different.
