Unexpected car inspection awaited me in parking lot of strip club

3/9/2014 11:02:03 AM

I went to a club in florida this past week. I'd like to keep this discussion generic in terms of not naming the club. I'm also not going to identify the make or model of my car. This particular club is not in the best part of town but not terrible either.

When I exited the club maybe 30-45 minutes after arrival I was a little surprised to glance ahead and see one male employee of the club and another male that i didn't recognize inspecting my vehicle a little closer than I was comfortable with. They were looking in the windows and seemed very intent on a close visual inspection. My car is nothing special and i bought it used a couple months ago for less than the average american pays for a new car.

I tried to make my presence clear and couldn't help but to appear very uncomfortable with the circumstances. If you look in my car close enought it is pretty clear what my occupation is which I never share with dancers or strangers. Both of these men asked me if it was my vehicle and i answered affirmative and asked why. They simply said they were admiring it and asked me if it was a Bentley. I assured them it was not a Bentley and ended the conversation there.

I've never had anything like this happen before at a strip club. Anyone have any comments or experience?

The first time I saw a Bentley, I thought it was a Chrysler because of the winged insignia. Then I looked inside. Holy shit.

"If you look in my car close enough it is pretty clear what my occupation is"

Farmerart can identify.

His "CANADIAN OILMEN DRILL DEEPER" bumper sticker on his F150 is a dead giveaway.

Motor, now I'm wondering what bumper stickers other members have.
If juice had a Bentley, it would be covered with stripper decals, with flames on the hood and sides.lol

Are we talking a Hyundai Genesis? The winged hood emblems are similar from a distance.

I thought for a second the club employees were complaining because you drove a junker to the strip club and it was leaking oil all over their parking lot. :)
Sometimes guys do check out vehicles. I don't think it's necessarily a strip club employee thing.

I'm intrigued. What can be in the car? A fireman's helmet? A doctor's stethoscope? A priest's vestments? Inquiring minds want to know!

Jack,

That was the most intriguing portion of the post. :)

A Papa John's cone you stick on the roof of your car would also be a dead giveaway

Motorhead, you should know by now FarmerArt drives an F250 not an F150. LOL

Maybe you should name the club so other clubbers not comfortable with this kind of activity will avoid it.

This happens to me quite often....but it's usually people absolutely amazed at my car and they ask me how I manage to keep it together in one piece with all the rust...

Um, you're a mortician, and you were going to embalm he dead body in the back seat in the morning?

You work for animal control, and there was a tied-up alligator in your back seat?

You're a catholic priest, and there was a tied-up altar boy in your back seat?

Once, in Ohio back in the 70's, I saw the flashing lights behind me on the way home from clubs. Of course the worst thoughts ran through my head. Turned out the officer wanted to see my car. For that, I was grateful.

I have found that an EOD sticker on each of my rear side windows reduces close inspections (Explosive Ordinance Disposal spelled out with "STAY BACK" in red). I do not do EOD but a friend retired from the Navy and kept a big stack of perimeter cards from his last duty.

I used to drive my exotic sports car to the club when I was going a few times a year and it got attention as a matter of course, but when I started clubbing often not only did I stop driving it I changed my user name here because it was my license plate. It's not a good idea to advertise! Without knowing what kind of car you have, I don't know how unusual this is, but my car draws crowds everywhere so I'm well used to it.

@Clubber: That happens to me too. I've been pulled over a few times because the cop wanted to see the car.

Lol. I've heard of cops pulling over hot girls - but never pulling over hot cars.

The car I mentioned was a '69/'70 Nissan Fairlady Z.

@Motorhead. Lots of cops are car guys. I once went by a local cop on a frontage road doing about 75 in a 30 zone. I figured I was totally screwed but after telling him about the car for 15 minutes or so he let me off with a warning.

Another time I was on my way to bowling league and got pulled over. I was running late but I wasn't speeding. The cop started chit chat and I did my best not be rude...I explained I would be late and if I left now I could be on time without speeding. He laughed, apologized for talking my time and off I went.

BTW I don't run a front plate which is illegal in my state; I've never had a cop ask about that!

Care to mention the vehicle?

No. Everyone in the one club I reviewed knows it, as do people who have my email. I'd rather post here with at least a hope of not being outed! The only hint I'll give you is the company has a couple F1 cars, but it's not a factory team. If you PM me with a guess I'll let you know if you're right!

Yes, and I will if needed! Hopefully the threat of their dying will prevent an attack.
