I'll be honest I wasn't even aware that there was a strip club in New Mexico outside of Albuquerque. Here it is. I just driving back to El Paso from Roswell. No I didn't see any aliens, but I did see an invasion of alien gift shops over there but that's besides the point. Club 285 is located on highway 285 leaving the town of Artesia on the way to Carlsbad. It is literally out there on it's own, aside from a few farms in the distance. Doesn't look like a fancy joint from the outside, it's not, but overall I think the experience was better than expected, usually places like this have shit talent, but no the few girls working here were actually pretty hot. The cover here was $15 on a Saturday. I rolled in around 7, the hours were 6-2. The odd thing about this place was that it was no BYOB and they didn't sell alcohol. What the hell is that about. The guy said that this was the only club in a 3 hour radius and I believe that's correct, making this one of the more isolated clubs in country.

Club setup is stage is in the back right corner, bathroom to your immediate right, VIP on the right wall and dressing room on the left wall. It's not very big it's kind of just one small room, where the stage and seats are. I was the only customer at that time. VIP is $10 to get in and dances are $20. This club is full nude. I wasn't really dressed appropriately, shorts and t shirt, although some would say I was dressed very appropriately either way I was caught off guard when I saw the club and just turned around on the highway on curious whim. Fuck it why not check it out. It's a really empty part of the country and will likely never be back that way. Only 4 girls working but I would say all were good looking. I was hanging out with Camara, cool girl and had these glow in the dark braces, neato. In the spirit of the club name I tipped the girls $2.85, they absolutely loved it when I whipped out the change. Ok I didn't but I would have done it if I wasn't to lazy to gather up the change from my car. Overall I had good time for such a odd spot for a club. I would say I might come back, but there is just no reason for me to drive hours to such a boring albeit beautiful part of the country ever again. If you live in this area, it's the only show in town for hundreds of miles.
