Guys, protect yourself!

Ask any divorced man out there and he will tell you that women can be much more dangerous than any tough guy. A man will attack you head on, with women, you will never see it coming. Brings me to the point, dancers (at least the hot ones) will usually take safety precautions, clients almost never give it a thought. It's a mistake and here is why. First check out this youtube video

They clearly target SC customers. You say that is Colombia, couldn't happen here, it just did!

I usually goto SC alone and sometimes get very drunk. I never realized how vulnerable I was until I saw this NY guy get truly screwed.
The main precaution is your drink. I've switched from mixed drinks to bottle and never leave my drink unattended. Second, I do not bring more than a single cc with me when I go out. Third, I've started a habit to text my buddy when I go into a SC so there is some record. My ATM has a daily limit. Finally, if I'm not in my hometown of NYC, I don't get shitfaced drunk. Welcome any other ideas.

And above all, in a strange town or a strange local club, extra precaution is a must. ilbbaicnl summed it up well.
Ditto gmd & sofaking87.

On a serious note though, if you worry about shit like this all the time when you club, then you'll never relax enough to enjoy clubbing to its fullest. All we can do is try to put in simple rules upfront to limit this type of exposure, such as sticking to cash.
I'm not surprised that it happened in NYC though, which IMHO is one of the worst places to club.
You hit a cord with your post. Many times after a night out at regular bars and strip clubs, I have woken in the AM and seemed to remember very little. Interestingly to me, I find that by talking to others I was pretty much my normal self and functioned fairly well. I have even swore to myself I knew I had not paid my tab, but when I check back, I did.
This still doesn't give the feeling of security I should have, but at 65, I don't care nearly as much as I did 40 years ago. :)
Despite what's been indicated by some, I can have a GREAT time in a strip club without alcohol, which dulls your senses, if you know what I mean...
What would Alucard say?
Hmmm....
