Decent trip soured at the end
Two buddies and I went to Covergirls late one Saturday after a concert in Fort Wayne. Our primary reason for choosing Covergirls over other clubs in town was their 5am closing time, as we were heading out late. The club is located in an industrial part of Fort Wayne, and looks pretty sketchy on the outside. However, the inside is modern and clean, and doesn’t give off a dangerous vibe. The club is on the smaller side with one large stage surrounded by seats, a bar against the back wall, and a private dance area on one side. The club was around a third full of patrons, with plenty of dancers to go around. Prices for cover, dances, and drinks were all on the cheaper side.
Most of the dancers at Covergirls were not particularly attractive. There were however, a few VERY hot girls performing there. Close to half of the performers were black, with the remaining being a mix of white, Hispanic, and Asian. Oddly, even the best looking dancers were not terribly busy when we arrived, despite there being a decent crowd. All of the performers I interacted with were pleasant and outgoing. They also seemed to be working pretty hard to make their money. Most the dancers put on quite a show on the pole, and none of the dances I had were lackluster.
There was one incident that soured my whole experience at the club, and probably lowers my score by a star. The law in Indiana is that bars have to stop serving alcohol at 3am but may remain open later allowing you to chill and finish what you’ve already bought. So, when last call came at 3am, I went to the bar to buy three pitchers of beer to share for the remainder of our stay. Bartender took my cash, poured my beer, and sent me on my way without a word. Five minutes later, the bouncer came up to our table and said, “Last call, I have to take your drinks”. He took our nearly full pitchers, and before we could chug what was in our glasses, he came back for those as well. If it is their policy to take drinks away immediately at 3am, then the bartender should have said something when I ordered so much beer at 2:55; if not, their bouncer was being a dick. Either way, we were a little pissed and left shortly after.
I will probably not go back to Covergirls based on the service from their non-performer employees and not-great looks of most of their dancers.
