Visited on Thursday, 3/10 on my annual Spring Training/Strip Club sojurn. I always base in Tampa and usually head to Ybor and 2001. This year, I decided to try BA after reading the glowing reviews.

After going well out of the way (and spending 45 minutes on US 19 stuck behind an overturned SUV), I was fairly disappointed. I wasn't that I had a bad experience, just that it didn't live up to my expectations based on the reviews here.

Inside is as described elsewhere. L-shaped, small stage. Fortunately it wasn't too crowded at 8:00 when I arrived, but the place was full by the time I left a couple hours later. Probably 15 dancers or so, although I'm sure I didn't see them all. Mostly 6-7, one 3 and one 9 thrown in. Almost all had tattoos (deduction) and most of the chests were artificial (deduction). I was lucky enough to find a delightfully thin brunette (Tiffany?) with long hair, long legs, and no tattoos. Took advantage of a 3 for 50 topless and then proceeded to the private room for 160. Although certainly enjoyable, there wasn't really any difference in the dances between the topless and the private. Save your $ and stick with the topless.
