last commentThat's not even close to robbing a club with AK-47s...
I first learned bouncers don't get health insurance back when a group of rowdies in Madison threw one through the plate glass window at the front of the place. Not a job I'd ever take.

Teasers is a low class SC in a deteriorating neighborhood. In my 20+ years of clubbing in Phoenix, I never set foot in the place. There are too many nice clubs in Phx.

My company's headquarters is in Phoenix. I was hoping they were trying to outdo Detroit in another category!

Apparently, all those PHX miscreants haven't heard of "Sheriff Joe". I've been to Abco ( a recent shooting), and ttf's reviewed clubs. 10 in all. Not every club can be located near upscale car dealers like Babes.

Detroit cannot be outdone.

Arizona recently passed a law requiring every citizen to carry a gun and shoot at least one person per year.

Drunks and guns are a bad combination. CT is right, I have no doubt it was sheer terror that night at Tycoons. Nothing like looking at two madmen with automatic weapons as they robbed the bar.

@ttf: I went to the old location on Camelback many years ago because I was right there and needed to kill some time before an appointment. The two dancers working that afternoon were and are #1 and #2 on my list of all-time fattest oldest ugliest strippers. The experience was right on the line between disgusting and hilarious. I think I stayed 5 minutes.
