    Strippers get these offers?
    Some guys do throw out ridiculous offers like this. Even those or more modest means are always offering to "save" a girl from a club. For whatever reason, I get some of the more candid conversation from dancers - and it occurs outside the club. The women who get those high end offers rarely accept for a variety of reasons - if you are the type of girl who can walk away with $2000 over a weekend normally, why would you take a weekend off with a dude for less than $3000? You run the risk of having a reputation that club owners don't want, and frankly, some of us are gross. For those that do negotiate such things at more reasonable prices, rarely are their motivations less than some combination of a habit and children to support. The lowest prices generally come from the previous. I've also met the rare girl working in a club to have enough self-respect to never consider such things. Or so they'd claim.

    Strip Club Accidents
    While I've never been able to apply it in this situation, my preferred response to accidents that set people up for some kind of liability is "I'd like to resolve this as quietly as possible. How would you like to do that?" It shows you understand the value of being discreet, which gets the best first offer possible.

    Favorite Akron Ohio area club?
    If you're even considering Brunswick, you may as well go to Brook Park. Stay away from Sam's Hideaway in Medina, period. I'm hearing good things about Gatsby's lately, but I've yet to go myself. The only thing I'd suggest about Akron is to hit the some of the same clubs you've been at (Tallmadge/Brittain) given the lack of cover and cycle through until you see something you like. Having one beer at each while you check out the scenery won't set you back much. Good to know about Steve's. I'd previously use a place on Manchester Rd. a bit south of the city.

    The difference between malice and stupid often doesn't make itself known until after something goes wrong. Regardless of your paranoia, you did a safe and smart thing.

    Would you have handeled this differently?
    That doesn't sound like law enforcement language, it sounds like desperate talk. Either way, I wouldn't have responded with any useful information. The best case is that you have your name thrown as a referral and the worst is that they get busted. You don't win.

    Not cool. It'd be tantamount to reaching into the garter to take a $20 back because you didn't like the dance. That said, she did say you could take whatever you wanted to eat or drink from the kitchen... who says you didn't feel like eating a Benjamin or 3?

    What is so wrong with dating a stripper?
    Everything about dating a stripper is good in theory, and horrible when put into practice.

    Atlanta's Club Onyx Strippers Win $1.55 Million Settlement For Unpaid Wages
    I know this is probably something determined on a state-by-state basis, but how do you differentiate a full time employee vs an independent contractor in this line of work? Apparently, a 1099 basis isn't enough...

    I've heard this same store verbatim before. It must have been in 2010 when that first happened.

    Making the case for strip clubs to have child care centers.
    A club obviously shouldn't have it, but there's nothing wrong with trying to "partner" with a local day care to get their employees a discount. As far as the patrons this article discusses, there's little you can do for this brand of stupid.

    Fake or Natural?
    I strongly prefer natural, and large - C and up. That said, I'm willing to tolerate women up to a size 12 (US sizing) to...erm...enjoy them. I've also seen amazing work with laser lifts to ensure a natural appearance while limiting sagging. Breasts that upon appearance are fake are a bigger turn off to me than A-cups, but I'd be hard pressed to discriminate against someone with a great boob job that appears natural since it's scenery that I'm generally only looking at.

    Clevland v. Pittsburgh ?
    Ohio has shit laws governing practices. The nicer establishments in Cleveland definitely don't yield girls inclined towards extras. I have suspicions about some of the lesser ones in Cleveland, and am CERTAIN about opportunities in nearby Akron. My guess is that wherever you went to, if the girls were from Cleveland, they were in the range of 6-8 and couldn't crack the nicer clubs. Or so is my experience. If I'm wrong, please correct me.

    Can a gay male do an objective review on a female strip club?
    Have you seen some of the reviews here? He presented a greater detail than about 80% of them. Isn't that good enough?

    Buying Viagra from an on line pharmacy. Good news.
    @Player11: You have my sympathies. Lexapro is a bitch on the brain and body. After 30 days off the drugs - everything in my life got better.

    I loved that place. I'm going to Atlanta in August, and I am DEFINITELY headed back there. It's not everyone's taste, but it's crazy people having a fun time.

    TRY IT OUT!!!
    I got excited at the "don't pay for dances until 7PM" bit until I realized that was for the dancers.

    I'll second the dry cleaning. Check cashing, coffee/espresso bar, real massage and spa-type facilities, lottery/keno, an "office/busines center" (like the former Kinko's, or what hotels commonly offer) and "internet sweepstakes cafe" capabilities (like we have in Ohio) would probably be nice complements depending on if it's a higher end or lower end club.

    Clubs in Rochester NY Clubs
    While magnum0077 is right about heading over the border for the best results, there's also Foxy's in Scottsville NY just outside Rochester, and it's a nice neighborhood-style bar with some excellent looking women. I have a friend who used to DJ there and it's a nice spot - even during the week.
