I just watched a re-run of South park tonight and enjoyed the strip club scene. It's a cartoon but they still parody parts of the strip club like the annoying DJ and the dancer who goes around to everyone asking "wanna dance? dance? anyone want a dance?". The name of the club in the cartoon was "Peppermint Hippo"
Didn't see clip, but name could just as easily been Spearmint Rhino. SR often epitomizes the factors that I find annoying in the corporate chain clubs. While SR DJ's aren't the loudest or most obnoxious around, the clipped songs & frequently changing gimmmicks ( 2fers, 3fers, etc) leads to miscounts or clipped times in VIP (which has minimum dance packs). There are the usual number of "wanna dance" robodancers, no more so than a lot of other clubs. Waitresses are on you like a mosquito on a bleeding dog for the "buy a lady a drink", whether floorside seating or lapdance area. That said, some of my most high mileage sessions have occured at SR.
