I usually make a Vegas trip about once a year with the guys, and make a strip club visit at some point.
In general, Vegas strip clubs are high on cost, but we get good stories, laughs, and plenty of eye candy from the visits, so we still do it.
Treasures was definitely high pressure with moderate value this time around. We called for a limo pickup (and the valet bell staff at Planet Hollywood was NOT happy about our being picked up that way) so the admission was "free" but we still had to pre-pay two drink minimum for $27.
As soon as we came in, dancers swooped in made themselves comfortable. Took me repeated effort to get the one who snagged my arm to leave. Very aggressive.
Lap dances on the floor were $20. Three for $100 in more secluded couch area, with a two drink minimum there (the drinks added up quickly).
The dancers ranged in attractiveness, with some outright outright stunners, but their sales pitch was VIP or walk away. Not exactly friendly.
The mileage was there to be had, however. Hands roamed freely. But add up all the cost and the feeling of having ATM stamped on your head from everyone involved, and the value drops.
I have to admit, we still had a good time. But could we have done that at another less pushy club, and feel less on the defensive? Is there even one around in Vegas at the moment?
