Thank You TUSCL / Follies Question
IHearVoices
954 (South Florida)
Speaking of those two and the aforementioned spot, I'm going to Atlanta next week. I've gone to Follies maybe 4-5 times and like many of you, I prefer the dayshift (although my recollection of nightshift is that it's not really bad, just that fun isn't as readily available as dayshift). Anyway: the question is whether any day(s) of the week stand out. I'll be there for almost a week, so any day except Thursday is an option.
As long as I'm here, any suggestions on where to watch the UFC event? Still interested in it, even with dos Anjos being out: Nate Diaz is going to talk himself into an Irish right and Holm/Tate should be good.
Got something to say?

Sun, Mon, Tue - Not enough quality girls.
Wed, Thu, Sat - Best days
Fri - Good talent but so crowded.
I’ve made 3 or 4 SC trips in the last 2 years to ATL and Follies mostly b/c of what I’ve learned on TUSCL about the area.
Not being a local my Follies data-set is thus limited – but I have had good times there on Saturday afternoons – often times is a bit slow early-on particularly with the chocolate talent but by late afternoon (4/5 pm) seems lots of more dancers on the floor.
My Su dayshift visit in my last trip was not bad but club was slower early-on compared to Sat dayshift; but did pick-up later in the afternoon.
I also hit the club the next day on Mo afternoon and it was packed custy-wise but the talent although not bad not to what I had enjoyed on Sat afternoon (per my tastes).
w/ so many dancers on any day it doesn’t hurt to go by and spend some time and see how it goes but per my limited experience it seems late afternoon is best dancer-wise.
Loot at VeryBigDawg’s reviews and do a keyword search for “tv”
It does seem like a different place by 4, I'll say that. The nice, quiet place (comparatively speaking) is pretty much gone by then. Only thing is, if I go Friday I'm not leaving to head into rush hour traffic. If I don't leave by 3:30, I'm staying until 6:30...which I've done before.
Seems like Saturday is a really good day, which might work if they're showing the fight. I could just arrive in the afternoon and marathon it out.
Perhaps they may have a mid-shift as many clubs do thus late-afternoons one has overlap b/w the dayshift and mid-shift dancers (thus more dancers in total)?
I don’t think Follies is a good place to watch sporting events – I don’t recall too many if any TVs but I was probably “distracted”; plus the club gets too packed and is too small – best to choose the biggest SC possible that has a good # of TVs and get there a bit early in the eve to grab a decent seat w/ a good view of the TV.
Cheetah Hallandale also has a TV room of sorts but I’ve never been in it and IDK if they charge to sit there for the PPV fights (Cheetah’s TV room is not tiny but def smaller than Tootsies’ sportsbar).
I've only gone to Cheetah once - thankfully, before the raid and all. I think I saw reviews saying it got tame after that...which is bad with the options that are less than 10 minutes away.
I used to like hitting Showgirls a couple of years back b/c they had a decent mix of Latina; white, and black dancers; but these days; like many SoFlo clubs; Showgirls is kinda almost all Cuban chicks; still not a bad visit but I’m not into the Cuban chicks (plus I get pissed w/ them charging $25/dance and often playing songs at about 3 minutes and some shorter).
This reminds me of my little go-to black dive down here in Miami where it’s often jumping Sat and Su late-afternoons – one assumption that I have is that perhaps there are part-time dancers that may mostly just dance on weekends due to either having another job during the week or being in school?
Even w/ my propensity for the all-black clubs; in my last ATL trip I hit Follies 4x with 3x being on dayshift (and did not regret it).
