Making It Rain - Help me to understand this.
Warrior15
Anywhere there are Titties.
This weekend, I went into a Tampa area club. Sat at the bar and a lovely Cubana walks up to talk to me. Just as we started to get friendly, she gets called up on stage. As she walks away, I tell her to come back after her set. She gets up on stage and starts dancing. There are about 3 young gentlemen sitting near the stage that evidently liked my Cuban, so they walk over to the stage. Each of them pulls out a wad of dollar bills and throws it out onto the stage. Not sure how much and I'm sure they were all $1's. But each of them threw out $10-$20. For the money they threw out there, they got no more attention that if they would have walked up to her and given her a single. After her set, the Cubana walks right back over to me.
So my question is this. What is the fun in "making it rain" ? I truly don't get it. Do they think it impresses the girls ? This girl didn't even bother to pick up the bills. The club had a guy come in behind her and sweep up the bills. One of them got to grab her ass for a couple of seconds and that was all the action they got for their expense. I hadn't given the girl any money at all to this point, and it's me she walks up to after her set. Granted, I did ask before she went on stage.

The truth is - most of the folks who make it rain probably can’t afford to just toss it away. It’s all about appearance.
It does impress some strippers, although the type of stripper I seem to prefer generally finds it as stupid as I do. It also seems to pick at some guys ego's. I've had strippers give me money to make it rain on them, to induce others to do the same. As dumb as it seems, it certainly seems to work.
Maybe I'm not cut out for it, or maybe I'm not doing it right... or more likely I'm not looking for the attention that it brings.
Ha ha! I do really think this behavior is tied up in inner city conspicuous consumption culture, and I (like most of us who find our way to tuscl) have a hard time getting it -- I find conspicuous consumption gauche and declasse, and if there's something I can't abide, it's a declasse strip club (lol). I'll never understand spending all that money just to put on airs for the rest of the club. On the other hand, I see this behavior almost never in the clubs I go to.
Last week in one club one of those guys did everything he could, waiting till I went to the bathroom, asking the waitress to send her over, and just acting all hard as hell. I didn’t leave till after her shift was over, with her, and it was so obvious he was bent out of shape, crazy funny.
Yes
They know that those who make it rain dont spend money in VIP
I pretty sure it wouldn't appeal to me. I'm not that bothered regarding the expense, but I think there are more brilliant ways to spend money.
But I could see the point in saying "hey, I'll get $200 or $300 in ones and make it rain three to six times". I suspect it wouldn't be fun unless you're pretty drunk. But who knows?
Friendly advice: if you try this use Uber. TUSCL doesn't need another rickdugan! ;)
Overall I'm with Subraman on this one however the girls love it, not only because it is money that doesn't require them to grind on anybody but it also promotes them to entire club guest....everyone wants the girl someone else wants.
I only frequent one club that it seems to happen in repeatedly and I have yet to see it in the two I am most often in.
In the one club it happens in the managers there promote it--make a big deal out of sweeping up the bills with big brooms and the lights the lights turned up on the stage.....
I saw the most extreme example recently. Weeknight, late, downtown location known for attracting businessmen. Large circular stage that must have been 15 ft in diameter covered with layers of dollar bills. I would estimate several thousand dollars, and the staff came by with large plastic buckets in several trips to clean it all up.
I make the large majority of my money in VIP, but I like getting rained on. Not drizzled, real rain. Thunderstorms are my favorite, also hurricanes and tsunamis.
I mean, tonight is Sunday and I know I'll at least make enough on stage to cover my tip out.
A few months back when I was in Tampa, at 2001 Odyssey, I was sitting at the stage. There was a group of maybe 3 white men, all looked to be in their 50’s if I had to guess. One of them made it rain, maybe about $20 worth of singles. The dancer did enjoy it and she did seem to feel an adrenaline rush. But then, the dancer came over to me and all I did was tip her $1, maybe $2, and she asked me if I wanted to get dances later. Well, later ended up being about 10 minutes or so after she got off stage as I was the one she chose to approach and not those other guys even though they tipped more than I did.

I’m fine with not throwing money on the stage or floor. It works for me to use a more traditional approach.
Seeing all the cash on the stage increased the generosity of the other stage tippers as well. I think I made maybe $40 off of the others? It was great.
I personally don't make/haven't made it rain ever. Nonetheless, I think black guys do it because it's what's seen on hip hop videos and or said in hip hop songs. The guy making it rain is perceived as the Man with so, so much money and can afford to throw it in the air like it's nothing. Moreover, with this perception, they are impressing the dancer.
From what I see in the videos, the guys I've seen at the club, appear to be doing it small time compared to the videos. In the videos a guy is making it rain most of/entire song. However, what I've seen, similar to what you mentioned, they make it rain once and thats it. I've seen guys make it rain less than $10 or make it rain, with no particular interest in the girl because she's not even near him, or looking at him and then turn around to cool walk back to their seat.
I think most of the girls probably can tell if a guy really has deep pockets and is maky it rain as well as they can tell the guy with dry pockets trying to show off.
Like you, a simple stage tip in the g string or prior her stage set will probably have her back in your lap.
