Wow. IF you've been to...

Wow. IF you've been to more than say, 15 or 20 strip clubs in the USA in your lifetime, you are probably familiar with getting asked if you'd like a dance (lap, table, whatever), within 20 mins or so after sitting down... One of my most pleasant greetings was in NYC - I was immediately met at the door with a hug that was very very close - and hot... she lead me in and yes, I gave her some money. In this place, the Sands Showgirls in Ballard / Seattle, you're lucky if you are noticed at all by the girls here. They apparently use the place a private meeting place for regulars and since they don't need every new guy that walks in, they just totally ignore you. Five or so girls, really hot ones too, sat on their butts for a half an hour to an hour, while I and four other guys sat and stared at an empty stage and sometimes looked over at the girls chatting with each other or texting with who know who... (we customers can't use our cell phones!) maybe their regulars. If you go to these places to have the pleasure of a pleasant girl's company who at least pretends to be interested in you, don't go here. You may luck out, but you may also sit looking at yourself in the mirrored stage wall waiting for either the show to begin or one of the hotties sitting on their asses to come give you what you came for. Some freaking attention! Amazingly stupid way to run a business. Manager of the Sands Showgirls. Are you listening? Get your girls either on the stage, or on my lap... but get them off their (some of them) fat asses! OH, almost forgot. I finally got a dance with the one girl I wouldn't have chosen from the line up just because I was tired of waiting. She took me to the VIP room and one dance, which was nothing to scream about and not VIP treatment, cost $40!! NOT! Having said all that... YMMV And I noticed a several Asian guys that appear to be the regulars (walked right in and straight into the VIP room) that are keeping these girls so relaxed and unfit for working hard at keeping the customers interested.
