Money Wars at a Memphis Strip Club
jackslash
Detroit strip clubs
"Dennis, the general manager, is busy counting stacks of bills. "The number one difference here is they like to make it rain," he tells me.
In fact, at this club, it's not so much about, say, the women, it's about how you represent yourself.
"It's not really about the dances," Jason says. "It's about how you look in the club." Late at night and into the early morning hours, customers engage in so-called "money wars." The stacks of bills Dennis is bundling will be sold out of a duffel bag at the edge of the stage, minus 10 percent. In other words, $900 singles will cost you $1,000. In order to show off who has the most money to burn, customers will shower the girls with bills, competing with each other to make it rain money the hardest."

I've never been overly freaked out about spending. My literally throwing money away is just stupid.
Making it rain at a strip club without getting anything in return for your money reminds me of that movie.
Function: noun. Definition: an act or actions that come from ideas or beliefs that are not smart. Example Sentence: It was idiocracy for that man to drive so much over the speed limit.
These guys probably aren’t rich either - just trying to look like ballers.
I’ve only seen one guy make it rain - and it seemed like the dancer got bored - as he didn’t dump the stack - he pushed the singles off slowly - and it gave everybody time to think how stupid it was.

Im not sure if they realize just how stupid it is. Its all for show anyway. They do it for attention but to everyone else it just looks stupid.
No i dont think so. They just do it for attention and because the rappers do it. It could possibly lead to mileage in the vip at the make it rain clubs, but i would assume you would still have to pay for that in addition to making it rain. But then, i dont think the vip gets any action at those clubs because again, the make it rain nonsense is just for show and to make everyone look. Assuming noone else is in vip, they have nobody to show off for.
Most black clubs especially night shift weekends in Atlanta is the make it rain show...
the easiest money a stripper will ever make. She doesn't have to spend hours talking to us PLs, giving us SS for a measliy $200 and extras that they hate doing lol
And then people say that in the black clubs, as day becomes night, they turn more into ordinary night clubs with the strippers being secondary.

$1k at the stage, using singles just makes it a pain in the ass for you and the stripper.
Personally, I'd be more impressed by a gentleman tipping $1k by putting 10 crisp $100s around her garter. I'm sure the look on a stripper's face would be priceless if a PL did that.
If you insist on making it rain at least us a stack of 50 $20s instead. Or get creative and mix different denominations together.
But let me tell you this, the make it rain clubs I've been to, Mia mostly, the guys starting the "Shower", are there with the girls, the girls work for them. They're getting that $$ back so ease up on the judgment. That show is to get the ball players and celebrities and wannabes to do likewise and follow suit. And that is first hand info knowing the guys and dancers personally. Now a lot of fools follow the trend and do it to look like a boss, but they're the idiots you speak of.
