It has taken several years, several...

It has taken several years, several visits and several disappointments elsewhere, but I can now say that the Spearmint Rhino is my favorite club in Vegas. Not the least expensive place but not that ridiculous either. Was over at the Fashion Show Mall and made the short walk over mid-afternoon. Really not far at all. If you are staying at the Trump, it is only a couple blocks away. Cover was $22 but it was worth it. Every other place I visited in Vegas in the afternoon had only a few dancers and they weren't very attractive. Not so here. Not as many ladies as you would see at Midnight but a lot fewer customers to compete with as well.

Beers were only like $3.50 until 8 PM and no problem finding a good place to sit. Waitresses were cute and friendly and not at all pushy. No one on stage when I arrived but they started shortly thereafter. Ended up spending most of my time with a pretty cool chick named Carly who said she was in town for a few days from San Francisco. Attractive and very easy to talk to. Ended up getting a series of dances from her on the floor. She never really pushed for the VIP area which was pretty cool. Ended up getting some dances from a pretty cute little brunette named Hannah who was awfully friendly but was pushing pretty hard for me to go to VIP with her. I actually ended up getting some more cash from their ATM which, surprisingly, didn't charge me anymore than the ones in the casinos. Kind of hoped Hannah would make her way back but she never did.

There was one older Asian woman who was kind of a pain. I let her dance for me a couple of times and she always wanted a tip. Finally kicked her to the curb as she wasn't that attractive. Overall, spent over 4 hours and enjoyed it. Spent more money than I would ever normally spend at a club but, hey, it's Vegas and I'm on vacation. And I'll look forward to my next trip so I can do it all over again.
