Good Value For Your Money

First, you'll have an easier time finding the GABC if you've driven to it before. There are dead end streets, diagonal-running streets, an overhead 4-lane highway and railroad tracks to navigate. Plus its set back from the street, and the building is turned sideways so you can't see the entrance until you get to the parking lot. Then you're OK. The parking lot is big and lit at night. When going in the building, the topless side is to the left and the fully nude side is to the right. The "toll booth" is right as you go in. The topless side opens at 11AM and the fully nude side opens at 6pm. Prior to 7pm there's no entry charge.

I visited the topless side in the afternoon. No entry fee, but you're expected to buy two drinks while you're there. That's reasonable. I bought two bottles of water, for a total of $4. So, sitting down at the stage cost me a total of that $4. There were about 11 customers, of which 6 were just at the bar drinking. The bar appears to be very well stocked. The other 5 of us were occupied with having private / VIP dances, or in my case waiting for one of the dancers to come free. After about 10 minutes of waiting, it was my turn. The VIP area costs $10, and you get a wristband to wear. It is good all day and evening, including entry into the fully nude area when it opens. VIP dances are $10 each, and are topless. Some interpersonal contact with the dancer is OK. Apparently dancers are either assigned to the topless area or the fully nude area in the evening, however if you want to have a VIP dance with one of the nude dancers, they have to come over to the topless area and put on a bikini bottom, or whatever else they have. The VIP area is elevated about 6-ft from the floor, and then it has a half-height wall for some further privacy. Unless some peeping Tom is very tall, people cannot see into the VIP area from the floor. Three couches are arranged in a U-shaped arrangement. So, total expenses at this point were $14. I got 8 VIP dances from a motivated dancer, total of $80, and then a tip. I have to say that her dance count and my dance count agreed; I asked for 8 dances and that's what I think I got. In my opinion, she earned a reasonable tip, and I gave her that tip.

No one will ever mistake the GABC for the Highlighter before it was raided as far as mileage goes. Still the GABC represents good value for those not looking for FS or "almost FS" services. Deducting the 6 men at the bar who were not there for interaction with the dancers, there were 5 men and 4 girls, which is a reasonable ratio. Two of the girls were A/A and two were white. The two A/A were very, extremely appealing, especially with their dance outfits on. The two white girls were appealing too. None were too skinny, and none were too fat.
