    Management Change? Did Ricks buy HB?
    Ricks did buy this Club. It is now part of that chain.

    I’d Pay To Leave
    I have read a lot of comments and have been a member on TUSCL for decades: His line, "I didn’t buy any dances. I didn’t buy any drinks. I paid to get in and would have paid again to get out. Thankfully they didn’t charge to leave." Is the best (and toughest) review I have read here in a long, long time...LMAO! Thank you Boodwah!

    First off, I need to make...
    The Club is very definitely not owned or controlled by Spearmint Rhino of Las Vegas. 11Miami is totally independent of and not in any way connected to SRLV. I know both owners, and the Clubs are not connected.

    Too hard to get consistent mileage with the floor-dances
    One of the most in depth reviews I have ever read on tuscl.

    So You Wanna Buy a Strip Club?
    To reply to Steve229: In short, YES! The upturn in the economy is driving interest....and compared to discos, C&W bars, urban clubs, etc....Nothing beats a strip club for steady income---but, and this is the big caveat-the competition is tougher, the restrictions in the industry itself related to Entertainer employment tax status, and the fact that every venue is working harder....The days of a Club being a plain old cash machine are long gone.....and As to SuperDude, if you ever become aware of a similar situation please do let me know asap. I personally have NEVER heard of any situation like that, and my first thought is that there might have been more to that scenario than just some late taxes....of course, there's always something different, new every day...LOL!!!...As for Jackslash: You have a number of reviews, but I submit your guest perspective is pretty much not correct with respect to Owners.

    To Gawker: I once had breakfast with the son of the man who had contacted me to sell the Club his very too-rich son had bought cause he thought he was buying himself a personal pussy palace. Halfway through the breakfast, the kid's eye go green and big, grabs his mouth, and disappears into bathroom for half hour tossing his guts coked out of his mind...He was wasted, had wasted my time....I billed Daddy for my total trip before I'd take the engagement. Not only were the Club's finances a trainwreck, but Cokie-Boy managed to snag a sexual harassment suit cause he sure 'nough pissed off a dancer he fucked--made selling the Club problematic-and this was a multimillion$ operation. Due to the incompetence of the son-on somanylevels-Landlord eventually just took it back, and their total investment north of $6M went down the tubes. My "3D" occupational hazard for Owners or Managers: Drugs, Drinking, and/or Dancers: either one or all or any combination thereof. ...I flashback to that total scene everytime I'm contacted by a first-timer....but next time I'll tell you about the guy I put in his first Club, and how strongly he is doing now!!!!

    You are absolutely correct! They are by definition in a "small business" category. Factors outside of a mainstream business, such as say a shoe store or even a regular bar: Zoning, business permitting are EVERYWHERE very prescripted, very controlled. I will be posting more, although I do write a regular article for Exotic Dancer Magazine, however it is more narrowly focused on technical aspects of ownership and operation.
