Better than nothing...

I saw that the club had reopened this past Friday, so I thought I’d give it a shot on Saturday. I stopped in a little before 8pm. The layout is about the same, but there are covid differences. You walk in and go up the stairs to the bouncer. There is now a plexiglass shield in front of the bouncer’s booth. They still scan your license, but now they also scan your forehead with an infrared thermometer. The bouncer explained that they now have appetizers for about $5 each and that I had to order one. The only reason they were able to open at all was because they decided to serve food. I was also told that, unfortunately, no lap dances were allowed. You had to keep your mask on if you were moving around the place, but could remove it when you were at your seat. I figured that I’d come this far, so I might as well hang out for a bit. I paid the $10 cover and walked in.

There is a round stage in the middle of the room that is now enclosed by a plexiglass barrier. There is a gap at the bottom for tips, and you can still sit around the stage. One of the dancers told me it’s hot as hell up there because most of the airflow is cut off. There is a sad, unused lap dance area on the left wall, with the VIP room just past that in the hallway on the left. Bathrooms are in the back left, and there’s no troll. The bar is along the back wall. It too had a plexiglass barrier with room underneath to pass drinks. I had a couple rum and cokes at $6 a piece. I also ordered the potato skins appetizer for $5. All of the food is cooked in some kind of larger food service toaster oven. The potato skins were...ok. They clearly came from some kind of club store and we’re on the cheap side. You really don’t go here for the food though.

I watched the stage show for a bit and tipped a couple of the girls. There were 5 girls on. One of them came over later on and hung out. Her name was Madison. She was cute, and on the thicker side. We had some drinks and talked for a bit. She was easy to talk to and just as disappointed that there were no lap dances, probably because of all that cash they’re not pulling in. Anyway, she said that they are allowed to do table dances, but no touching allowed. I got one at $20 just to see how they were. Aside from one graze, there was no touching. I paid her, said goodbye, and headed out.
