jimmy in the Criket.

Last Saturday afternoon I found myself pulling into the Criket’s parking lot around 2. Was originally just planning on a quick parts run to Home Depot next door. But a little eye candy for a few minutes never hurt anyone.

Self parking(free and paved), no cover(day shift), no COVID protocols(mask,temp check,name&#). Walk in to bar straight a head to your right. Immediately to left is couple booths on your way to the girls locker room. Back wall to the left has 5 or 6 more booths($20). Then far wall is where dj booth and vip is located. To the left of dj and vip is bathrooms(no troll). Stage is in the middle of the room featuring 2 poles. Free seating tables spaced around the stage. Bar has a laidback, blue collar, comfortable atmosphere. Welcoming to all walks of life.

Pretty dead inside. Maybe 6 patrons. 3 girls. All glued to regulars. Two taller blondes, and a shorter more well endowed mixed dancer. When I walked in, another tatted blonde bombshell was getting off stage. But she ended up just being the bartender filling the void for the lack of girls. Wasn’t too thrilled with having pretty much no options, but decided I’d give it my 30 minute rule regardless and see what happens. Waitress took my $7 domestic order while I sat and watched the first unenthusiastic stage dance.
