Old reliable Dollie's

I discovered Dollie's Playhouse in fall of 2013 and have been back 20+ times. My usual trip to Washington Park consists of a late-afternoon or evening visit to Dollie's for a low-cost BJ "behind the beads", dinner and movie nearby, and a more private VIP experience the following afternoon in a lockable room at Cheeks or Wise Guys. With perhaps two exceptions in over 20 visits, Dollie's can be counted on to provide at least a CBJ for $40-60. Perhaps half a dozen times I've gotten a BBBJ for $60-80.

The club is located in the poor all-black town of Washington Park on the east end of Forest Boulevard, just before you leave town and cross the railroad tracks on the way to Collinsville. It is ugly both outside and inside, and several of the dancers should no longer be dancing, or should never have started in the first place. Nonetheless, I have always felt welcome and relatively safe. Cover in the afternoon, when I usually go, is $2, for which you get a ticket that lets you come back later in the day. I've actually done this a couple of times when I didn't see anyone worthy of my attention on day shift. On days there are usually 5-10 girls, mostly white, whereas at night there may be a few more working and they're almost all black.

On this particular visit the number of dancers was unusually high -- 11 -- of whom 8 were white and 3 were black. I have never seen a Latina or Asian dancer here. The same rather attractive 24-year-old white girl who provided a BBBJ for $80 at the beginning of November did the same thing this time for the same price. Actually she requested $50 and was absolutely delighted with my $30 tip for a job well done. She offered take-out on my next visit in a month or so, but she seemed strung out on something and I politely declined.
