Juniors = No Fun

No the club is not closing anytime soon as far as I know. The title of this message is in reference to the good times I once had at juniors. They are now a thing of the past. The last time I was at this club was years earlier around the 2014-2015 time frame before moving to Florida. Back then the club was high mileage at a low or reasonable cost. The schedule was 12pm to 4am back then, with a free admission at door but a mandatory 2 drink minimum of overpriced water, soda or juice. I went in early today around 3pm and the bouncer tells me they aren't open yet. I found it strange being that he was standing at the front entrance. If they were closed what was he doing there? He laid it out that their new working hours was from 4pm-12am. I figured the schedule is a result of the pandemic closing everything last year and the reopening process in NY forcing places like juniors to have to rearrange its schedule and get back into the swing of things like they were before. I decided to drive around and come back later. Its like this in ft. lauderdale. Went to another spot in the Hunt's Point area that I found online and figured to give it a try. That place was a total rip off and not worth mentioning. I made my way back to juniors almost around 8pm. Admission was higher from the last time I was there. There was now a door admission plus the 2 drink minimum. Make it close to $25 or so. I gave him two $20s to get back change (SINGLES). I walk in and it took a few seconds for my eyes to get accustomed to the darkness but once they did I didn't really miss anything. It was dead. One girl on the pole. Another one having a conversation with this overweight guy by the left hand side of the bar. 3 girls at the far end of the bar seated, looking at the cell phones and doing nothing. Two other schmoes on the other side nursing their water lol. One thing I noticed was that the usual suspects of thick Dominican women seemed to be gone or not present today. A bummer as I was hoping to reconnect with one or two of them. However in their place were younger and more proportionately shapely black women. One of whom I remembered from years back but didn't get a chance to speak with her and she seemed to be popular. One girl who I thought was black was actually a latina and revealed herself when she approached me for a dance. I took a look at her and opted to get my first lap dance at juniors since 2015. The back room looked about the same. Zero privacy, dark in certain areas and lighter in others. There seemed to be an emphasis by everyone to make sure you used hand sanitizer because this girl immediately told me in her baby english to hold out my hands and put sanitizer lotion on them. I'm thinking Whoa! Talk about great service. I figured I was in for the traditional "happy ending" atmosphere juniors was famous for. Next thing I know this girl is dancing in front of me. Swaying her hips with her back turned. Her nice ass all in my face. The thing is it wasn't literally 'in my face." It would have been buried in my face 6 or 7 years ago but she was basically giving me an air dance. I figured it had been awhile so maybe she has to get to know me? I tipped her by inserting some money in between her thong string and caressing her thigh as I did so. She actually told me "no touching." I'm thinking please don't tell me this is the new rule? Once she said that I got up and went back to the bar. Hoping that this was just a miss and there would be a "hit" seated somewhere at the bar. Another young looking Black woman named Monet or Monay slid next to me. She seemed a little more receptive to me having my hands on her hips as she grinded on me on the stool. We go to the back and its the same scenario. I made the error of giving her some money in advance thinking it would be a hands on experience and she also notified me "Sorry baby. The boss is there." This same girl allowed me to "roam" her thighs while she lap danced on me at the bar with her boss at the other end and could plainly see anything going on. But in the lap dance area where the boss couldn't see anything unless he had xray vision I wasn't allowed to touch??? As a sort of compromise she put her knee in between my legs and began to make "contact" with Mr. Happy. Only I couldn't reciprocate and just sat there like a schmuck until the songs I paid for were up. Went back to my seat and stuck up a quick conversation with this beautiful blonde bartender I had never seen previously. I would settle for an air dance from her. I asked her about some of the old veterans from years ago and she informed me they just never came back after the pandemic hit NY. Juniors has closed and opened twice for an extended period. It looks like they will stay open for good barring another pandemic. I asked the about the earlier hours and she said once more girls become part of the rotation they may go back to opening earlier and closing later. The impression I got was who I saw was on hand was what I would get. These girls were shapely, fake boobs fake ass and all. But air dances are not worth $20 a song. At least not to me. Maybe I was unlucky and just got the less risque girls working the evening. I never thought I'd say this but I miss the dominican ladies. Even the annoying ones jajajajaja. Overall a no-fun experience. Waste of money really. Juniors doesn't offer much else. There's still no alcohol and likely never will. And now $20 air dances. All I got was blue balls. On a scale of 1 to 10 I give it a 2. And only scoring it so high because that blonde bartender was HOT. If anyone has any recommendations of places to go in the New York city or Jersey area that used to be like juniors was years ago please share. I'm only in town until Sunday. Cheers!
