Following Scarlet Lounge on their Instagram account, a few weeks ago they posted that they were going to close for a couple of days to update their stage. Before the pandemic, SL was a favorite hangout of mine with some extra fun from a couple of dancers. Their stage/rack was decent enough as well. When all the clubs closed for the pandemic, they tore out that old stage and built a new one. Once clubs opened back up, I was disappointed with the stage change and have mentioned it a few times when I have walked through the doors to see a particular dancer (with that change, the only reason to spend a few bucks at this club for me). They also posted a sign at the back of the stage telling the dancers to stay on her side of the rail. They also had posted lap dance prices in the lap dance booth. In the past, dancers quoted their own price and $20/dances could be had with some extra fun. The dancer I enjoyed from the past finally moved on to another club. When I saw the post about updating the stage again, I had to check it out today. Basically, they just removed the rail, put up a couple of mirrors, and took down that sign telling the dancers to stay on their side of the rail. Most of the dancers were taking full advantage of that (thank god). Oh yeah, they still have those cheap padded small restaurant chairs around the stage. I guess they don't want you to get too comfortable at the rack.

 

I pulled in to the parking lot around 3 PM and the lot looked pretty busy. I walked straight in with no bouncer, no cover and no ID check. There is a podium, but not attended on this afternoon. The dancer board with dancer names/times are listed on the wall by that podium. I glanced at it and eight dancers were listed. No wonder that lot looked busy, as there were only 5 customers in this place and no one at the stage, except a lonely dancer just hanging out at the pole. There was one customer donating to the state at a lotto machine, two at the bar visiting with dancers, and one sitting at one of the handful of tables with a dancer. This is a fairly small club, but they have a decent covered patio out the back. They built a stage out there and were doing stage dancing when the clubs were not allowing patrons in the inside during COVID. A tatted, pierced, one side shaved hair with a ponytail, plump lady bartender who was friendly enough and hope she didn’t mind me staring at her while she got me my $3.50 coke. A friendly dancer sitting at the bar said hi while I was waiting. They have three lap dance booths, which have just curtains on the sides and door. Two have small couches and one has a normal large couch. All have deep seating, so in other words, you can stretch out some to get the perfect lap dance grinding angle. There are cameras in the booth, and oh yeah again, that damn lap dance price sign is still there.

 

The dancers. There was a mixed bag of young/older ladies, spinners/a little extra/no heavy weights, three AA, the rest white, blondes/brunettes, and fake/natural ta-ta’s of different sizes . On a range, three 7s and the rest 6/6+. Most left the stage and sat in my lap or came behind and rubbed those boobies/hands on my back or arm. Several sat in my lap and rubbed those beautiful things on my face with one even rubbing them between my legs. Several enjoyed feeling the inside of my shorts, but fail just short of reaching the goal. All were fun to interact with at the stage except one quiet one. I tipped $2 per song on average, but two got $3 out of me for the fun they were providing. It must have been horny Tuesday here, yeah, just my fantasy. They did two song sets, with no cutting of the songs. I was the only guy at the rack during my whole time there, which has it's advantages.
