If you are ever in Albert...

If you are ever in Albert Lea stop in. One of the friendliest places in the state. It has a blue collar feel and the decor hasn't been changed I'd guess since the 70's.

You enter into a standard looking tavern then head through the door to the left of the bar. One of the friendliest bartenders ever . . . a good looking blonde and naturally friendly. (She works at the 22 in the cities every once in a while and you'd certainly pay to see her dance.) Drinks - a coke was like $1.50 - seemed reasonable. The dancers are all independent - a couple I recognize from Minneapolis. The stage is large, the music is good and the dances are very touchy-feely. From there YMMV, but probably not a lot. A buck tip will get you a show at the stage and privates in a fairly private area are $20.

I had private dances from four of the five dancers . . . all were good and good looking. Wish I lived 100 miles closer.
