Coins

layin low but staying high
Last night I'm leaving the lap dance area with my ATF to be. A guy in front of me is paying for 4 dances ($80) with all $1 bills. It takes the bouncer a few minutes to count the huge pile of $1 bills and a line forms of guys and dancers waiting to pay behind him. When my turn finally comes, I tell the bouncer that I need to pay in quarters. He's laughs at the joke, and I hand him my $20s .
I get that the guy probably had a huge wad of $1 for stage tips that he wanted to get rid of before going home. But rather than create this huge line, he should've just done what I do -- either save the $1s for the next trip, or forget them in my pocket so the wife has something to be suspicious about on laundry day.
My joke with the bouncer made me wonder about something. Has anyone seen (or been) such a huge PL as to pay or tip a dancer in coins and not bills? I've never seen it done but I'm betting somebody probably has. Seems to me that sort of conduct would be right up there with jacking off while watching another guy get a lap dance.

What club was this? I don’t recall ever being in a club where I have to pay the bouncer, instead of the dancers, for the dances.
@papi - that's how the local Paper Moon does it
A Benji for your pussy
I think it's a good system. The bouncer sits at the entrance to the lap dance area and makes a note of when the dancer enters with a customer. When you leave, the bouncer has counted the number of dances and collects the money. He gives the dance her share, and keeps the club's cut.
The advantage of the system for the club is that it makes it easy to monitor the dances and collect their share. From the customers perspective, the advantage is that it prevents a dancer from over counting dances. A well-managed club is unlikely to overcharge, whereas an individual dancer even at a nice club might not be as honest.
The only downside to the system that I'm aware of it is that it makes it harder to just sit and talk in the lap dance area without being charged for a dance. Instead, conversation is to be out at the tables. However, in several instances where I've talked to a dancer through a song, the bouncer took her word for the fact that we didn't dance when I left. The system works well in my opinion.
Some of the nicer LA clubs
Tootsies in Miami works similar to this but one gives the money to the dancer ($25/LD) and then the dancer pays the bouncer that stands at the entrance of the LD area (dancer gives bouncer $5/LD cut) – this is the method I’m more familiar w/.
Thanks for the feedback.
No, I always round the 45 cents up to an even buck.
Steve, you are a generous guy but be careful making those admissions. You're really going to piss off jerikson if you admit to spending that kind of cash.
You ask, "Has anyone seen (or been) such a huge PL as to pay or tip a dancer in coins and not bills?"
Have i done this yes, was I a "huge PL", no. That was the norm back in days gone by. At Tootsies, in Miami coins were give for the dancers to play the juke box for their songs. A $1 would have been worthless. Quarters back then were the dollars of today.
Most peoples "history" begins with the day they are born, so if something seems strange to you, don't think it never was.
I've seen it more recently at Cheetah, a homeless guy came in with a crown royal bag full of change. He was in front of me at the door paying the $1 entry fee in dimes, nickels and pennies. I saw him across the bar buying a beer with change, and then later sitting at the smaller stage sliding dimes onto the stage for every dancer. I was kinda surprised, the door girl, bartender, dancers, bouncers, and waitresses were all nice to him. On my way to take a piss I noticed him with a dancer naked in front of him dancing around, but I can't say I sat there and watched him pay with coins although I'm fairly sure he did. This was probably almost a year ago.
