Certainly a “Unique” experience

So, I’ve been to low end Akron at OGD and thought I’d try some place new. In my opinion Lusty’s is way lower end than OGD. The building outside in mid-afternoon looks fairly run down. When you get inside, you know for sure it’s run down. The physical lay out has been described multiple times but briefly you enter from the street into a large rectangular room. The bar takes up 3/4ths of the right side. There is a tiny (what looks like a) stage on the left side near the front. There are a few small tables with two chairs next to the left wall. Adjacent to this room is another similar sized room with an old pool table and another large table upon which it appears the dancers leave their “stuff” (including food detritus and other unidentifiable scary stuff). Past this table is the entrance to the men’s room that has no door and the room itself is downright frightening; I would totally recommend no one go in there if you can possibly help it.

No cover charge at the time of day I arrived. Other reviewers have stated the beer is $2.50. I paid $3.00 for a bottle of water (it was “Icelandic” but still. . . ) There were 4-5 customers nursing beers, the TV was on. Occasionally someone would put music on but the entire place was dead. Most of the dancers were older, not great bodies or faces, and were pretty low energy. There was one younger (late 20s) blonde spinner that I thought I might try to get to know but got CBed by a dark haired also younger (late 20’s) dancer who was obviously pregnant and she introduced herself as “Unique, with a “U”. She was extremely aggressive in wanting to take me back to VIP. She was actually quite cute and so I agreed. The VIP is down about four stairs to an small room with a couch/love seat that has seen better days.

I said she was cute — that was her looks. Unfortunately, I erred in not spending more time getting to know her in the main room. Once in the VIP room not only did she constantly try to upsell, she was also talking about all of her troubles, how she needs money, how men don’t treat her right, etc. I probably should have stopped her in the middle of everything and walked out but decided to see it through to the end. Total damage was $.2 with all the songs plus tip. Unfortunately, her inane banter and continuous attempts to get me to pay more made it one of my least enjoyable VIP sessions ever.
