Very different SC experience

I visited some friends from college over Thanksgiving in Chicago and we stayed downtown. Wednesday was rather low key for us, but a couple of the guys wanted to hit an SC. I've heard (and read reviews) about the clubs in Washington Park, but that was too far for us to go to.

Enter Pink Monkey. It is just a hop from downtown Chicago, so we were able to locate it pretty easy. And that was pretty much the nice thing about it, at least in my opinion.

There was a cover charge of $25-30 per person. Not sure of the exact number, since a friend covered this for me but ended up cursing under his breath. I asked for a beer, but the waitress insisted we get 2 minimum to start with??? WTF.. $50 to sit down at the club.
