sinclair's Review

I stopped into Fantasy on a Friday night around 20:30. The club is located on the frontage road to I-80/I-94 with the Little Calumet River being directly behind the club. If you are coming from the west, you get off at Kennedy Avenue, then travel east past the Buffalo Wild Wings and a bunch of motels on the frontage road. If you are coming from the east, you get off at Cline Avenue and have to go a half mile south before getting access to the frontage road at the first stoplight. The cover charge was $10, and the doorman kept pestering me for a tip. Strike #1.

Sincweisers were $4 per bottle. Both the bartender and the waitress were not attractive. When a dancer sits down at your table, the waitress will try to get you to buy her a drink that costs $20. The club gets $10 and the dancer gets $10. There is one stage with a central stationary pole. The chairs on the floor had metal backs and were rather uncomfortable.

Lap dances are $20 each on Wednesday through Thursday, but only $10 each on Monday and Tuesday. There were six dancers working. Five were African-American, and one was Caucasian. Most seemed to have lived a rough life by the way they looked and were below a 5 on my 10-point scale. Strike #2. This was the Friday night line-up:
