Status of Stripping in Phoenix

First, one of the better clubs, Centerfolds, was closed down after a bouncer killed a customer. Then, Hi Liter came under repetitive enforcement, making floor dances worthless and driving away dozens of veteran dancers ( their current location is a mystery). Following lots of recon on my part, Ive concluded there is no sign that any of the other clubs is stepping up to fill the void.
On the bright side, floor dances continue at $10 and there are still some attractive dancers at clubs like Bourbon Street. So, it’s not a total waste. But, the latest golden age of stripping seems to have ended.

The real fuel for the fire that is consuming the once fertile sc grounds can be traced to some of HL owners/management.
The decision to hire the load of Cubans that have displayed counting issues was step in the wrong direction. And now the ID scans that are being inforced irregularly .
At a time when Centerfolds idiot bouncer put a target on the industry in the valley, HL decided to do the following;
Enlarge the VIP making it private from looking in from the floor.
Allowed blatant disregard for any rules during the $10 floor dances, thus allowing anyone in the club to see activity that was questionable.
Repeatedly pushed for a license to open the Centerfold location, despite repeated denials by the city.
The above put a target the size on Texas on the HL Club itself.
Many dancers have landed at Sugar 44, Chicas, and Scores. A few have made 2/3 week trips to other cities like Las Vegas, Dallas/Ft. Worth, Albuquerque, and Tucson their business plan. I have found a few are now moving into the OTC market.
I have found out that the Christies location near the airport is bring remodeled to reopen by Spring Training.
Just the humble findings and opinion of a once loyal HL patron that now finds traveling out of town more appealing.
