Rail tipping around the nation.

Here's a topic that doesn't get a lot of attention, rail tipping. I personally like to sit stageside and tip till a dancer catches my eye. Across the country I've seen a lot of different ways that tipping is done or allowed. In Pittsburgh you leave the tip on the stage. In Canada you lie on your back on the stage with the tip in your mouth (God I love Canada!). Any other unique tipping other than the standard slip it in the g-string/garter?

I experienced the tip walk in Philly and San Diego last year. If you ask me it's a great opportunity for a lady to go after private dances. If you have even half a personality you should be able to get some percentage of guys to say yes...My observation was that the batting average was a lot better in the moderately upscale club in San Diego than it was in the neighborhood dive in downtown Philly. I bought a dance from a cute black dancer in Philly that I never would have approached normally. She came by and graciously asked if I enjoyed her show. I handed her five bucks (it was going to be two bucks but she was so nice I reached into the “fives” pocket) and we struck up a conversation. The next thing I knew we where headed for the PD area. A surprising and pleasant experience.
In Seattle area clubs, the dollar bills have be placed on the dance floor! Absolutely no contact with the dancers.
At Brad's Brass Flamingo in Indianapolis, the girls crawl down between your legs, nibble and nuzzle away and sometimes give you a nice humjob through your pants.
At clubs in Washington Park, Illinois, next to East St. Louis, girls come off the stage and give lap dances for up to a full song. Last week, I dined at the Y at stages at two different joints (and I do mean different - one was a dive and the other an over-the-top glitz palace).
By the way, very few clubs I've been to have any kind of "rail" at the stage, and I can't remember the last time I had to resort to slipping a tip in the stripper's garter. These two facts of my experience may not be unrelated.
BC liquor laws prohibit any contact between entertainer and customer. A couple of clubs get around it by having lap dance areas in what literally constitutes a different address where you can't take your drink or by not serving alcohol. And I won't say I've never had a stage dancer rest her ankles on my shoulders or rub my shaven head, but never as a result of tipping and in no way that compares to what I've gotten stageside at Vegas clubs.
The nude side of The Bush Company in Phoenix it is lay on the stage style. Lighting is pretty bad so can't see what is coming toward you there
Heh heh heh heh ;)
