I will be attending a horse show in Langley, BC next week. IF I can make it to a strip club while there, I have two questions about tipping the dancers on stage:
1. Is it even allowed or encouraged? (I'm most familiar with the Washington state clubs. They don't even have a tip rail (except one club that has "bird baths" that they expect you to put the tips in). The front row of seating is required to be a certain distance, maybe 6 ft. away from the stage. Very discouraging to tip the dancer while on stage.
2. Since there isn't a dollar bill in the Canadian currency, do customers actually throw loonies and twoonies on stage? I heard that did happend once to a feature dancer, and she first thought she was being "booed," or insulted for a poor performance, until another dancer reminded her that Canadian currency is different that in the U.S. (Could just be B.S., but it made for a funny story!)
So, how does one tip the dancer on stage in Canada? (Based on my last discussion item, I know I can depend on you guys for some "great" advice!)
Got something to say?
