Booze and pasties

What all states have this law in effect? Most states or just some? Is it a regional thing?

Louisville, but not Kentucky as a whole.

Lots of the shitty strip club states do. It's been a long time since I've been to a club in one of the states, but as I recall Virginia, Arkansas, and maybe Utah.

Ohio. Enforcement varies.

I think what's more common is states/cities where topless clubs can serve alcohol and nude clubs cannot.

There are places where pasties are required and there is no alcohol. For example Industrial Strip south of Chicago. Still a good club though cause lap dances are private, nude, and excellent.

JS69, does IS still follow that routine where everybody's 3-song private dance set has to start together and the DJ calls out which number you're all on? That was so beyond weird.

Club Wax in Atlanta is the only bikini club in the area. By being bikini they can serve alcohol but the dancers do not have to buy the $300 adult entertainment license and pass a back ground check. My understanding is that thing are different if you go to VIP.

In California they can't have full nudity and have alcohol.

So in San Francisco and San Mateo County they have topless and alcohol. But in Santa Clara County they have extra rules added to the alcohol licensing. So they can't even have topless if they have alcohol.

In some places pasties count as non-topless. But in other places, like Sunnyvale, they have much more detailed local ordinances which delineate exactly what tittie areas must be covered. Pasties would not do it, and even some of the vertical one piece bathing suits which I love so are no longer allowed.

I've read TUSCL for Utah and I think the furthest their clubs go to is pasties.

I think Nevada also does not allow nudity and alcohol, except for the Palamino / Club Lacey place where it is grandfathered in.

But I believe most states do not have such rules.

For myself I think no alcohol makes for a better environment and a better grade of dancer. But I know it is hard on the industry and it does mean for less clubs. The places with lots of clubs per capita, like Portland, Dallas, and Atlanta, don't have such alcohol rules. Also when there is no alcohol they usually have a high cover charge.

I believe you could probably find an online list somewhere, as many people are concerned with this issue.

Nipples are supposed to be covered in Indianapolis. I don't know if that law applies to just the city or to all of Indiana. And, no, it really doesn't stop a lot of dancers.

Course, though, one time, at the strip club, I think I did swallow a Band-aid.

It can varying within a state. A lot of the rule making is at the local (zoning) level.

Chandler haven't been to IS in 4-5 years so I'm not sure of the current practice. Never got extras there but the lap dances used to be as good or better than Follies.

As far as I know, pasties are required by law in Indiana, but in my experience the vast majority of dancers don't wear them. I think all strip clubs in Indiana are topless, not nude or "bikini bars". In neighboring Illinois, where all three kinds of clubs exist, nude clubs in general can't serve alcohol, with notable exceptions such as Club O and Skybox in Harvey and Club 390 in Chicago Heights. I can't recall ever seeing pasties in Illinois.

As others have mentioned; strip-club laws/ordinances are often at a city-level and clubs in adjoining cities can often operate differently and under different laws.

And has also been mentioned; many localities have long-standing ordinances that are not enforced or are enforced sporadically.

In South FL clubs are nude w/ alcohol – and nudity means full-nude on stage or w/ floor dances which are supposed to be non-contact – but 2-way contact LDs are only topless with the bottoms required.

Other parts of FL operate w/ different ordinances.

Many Ohio clubs are doing pasties after midnight on stage. The girls generally just keep their top on after midnight on stage so they can go without pasties in private dances. They know that we want to suck their tits and pasties are hard to pull off sometimes. Some clubs use a files colored latex which I prefer to patches if they are going to use anything.

Yeah I see them in indiana and Ohio(at least club 76 in austintown) but wasn't sure if this stupid rule is by state or local area(zoning?). I think they are in Lincoln, Nebraska(one of those shitty strip club areas johnsmith refered to).

Pasties are non-existent in the strip club paradise of Alberta.
