First time at strip club

This was the first strip club I have ever gone to. I went with a friend that has more experience going to clubs. I was a little nervous as I'd never been to a club before and I was not sure what to expect. Before entering the door, the bouncer checked our ID's. After that we went inside, and each paid a $10 cover charge. This was a weekday night, and we got there at about 11:15.

There is one central dance stage in the club. There are probably about 10 - 15 seats surrounding the dance stage. There is a bar just to the side of the stage. I was able to make change for a 20 at the bar to get singles to hand out at the stage.

Upon entering my friend and I sat down in the second row in front of the stage. A server approached quickly and asked us what we'd like to drink. We each got a beer. If I remember correctly we paid $8/beer and tipped her $4 ($20 total). There were two girls that approached us shortly after we got our beers. I chatted with Natalia for a few minutes, and decided to get a dance from her. All dances at this club are done back in a semi-private area. There are no table dance in the public area. (table dance and food service has been halted since the pandemic started).
