Club ripping off customers.

I read on another site that a customer went there last Wednesday night at 10:30PM. He paid $40 to park and a $20 cover charge. Once he got in the found the place dead and only 1 stripper in the whole club. I would have been pissed and demanded a refund.
Unfortunately I have seen a lot more of this lately. Clubs and dancers asking higher prices because they are desperate and don't have a lot of competition.

I don't think I have ever, or would ever, pay $60 to park and walk through the front door of a club. I had gone to a club (Paper Moon) while visiting family in Virginia last Nov or Dec and when I got to the door they wanted a "nonrefundable deposit" (don't remember exact amount but it was around $100-150) that could be applied to either a VIP dance or bottle service before you could go in. The bouncer said it was because they were operating at a very limjted capacity and they couldn't afford to let people in that didn't have enough money to spend. I laughed at the guy and turned around and left.
Hopefully as more competition reopens people will refuse to pay these ridiculous fees and things can get back to normal. Unfortunately once prices go up for whatever reason at a club they rarely go back down.
It might hurt in the beginning, but a long term way of thinking is to reduce or drop house fees altogether for a short period of time. Sustain on drink sales, tip outs and cover charges. Get the customers and the girls back, then restore fees. Play the long game.
Fuck, I didn't realize that Player's Club/Wagon Wheel was gone. That sucks. It was my favorite club in B'more once upon a time.
Anyway thanks for the update.
But yeah anyway like this whole approach of "hey biz is dead let's jack up prices to recoup our munniez" is fucking retarded. I do agree clubs should drop cover charges or cut them, maybe offer more drink specials or some shit to get dudes back in the door and get the biz back. And ya don't fuck over the god damn girls that are the only reason your fucking club has customers and money by charging us more than ever before. I've also been seeing that clubs seem to enjoy jacking up private room charges and shit without more money going to the girls. Or they tack on fees that never used to exist. Like say a club used to have $20 dances out on the floor. Then they don't allow floor dances plus require a dude to pay $20 to enter lapdance area every single time but the dances are still only $20 a song to the girl. I feel like this approach just fucks the dancers and the customers like fuck all that shit.
