Gia is worth it

Walked up the stairs and through the door around 10:30PM on a Friday. Paid $20 cover charge (argh!), had ID scanned (argh!), got wanded. Turned a corner and walked another 20 feet into the main room. A sharp left U-turn is a corridor with restrooms and ATM. The men's room has kind of an anteroom with a bench. I've heard that women's rooms often have things like that, but I've not seen it elsewhere in men's rooms. But that's not interesting, moving on. To the left in the corner of the room is the bar. $11 for Jack-and-Coke (argh!). The bartender with dark hair and blonde highlights can get distracted for long periods talking with her friends, but is competent once you get her attention. Straight ahead from where you enter the room is the stage. Two poles, elevated about 2 feet with chairs pulled up alongside. There actually were people stage tipping most of the time that night, which I hadn't seen in previous visits to Buffalo. To the right from where you enter the room is a counter where they collect money for private dances, and the private dance area, which has two rooms with doors that close (somewhat muffling the music, thank goodness!), and a larger open area with very low cushions serving as couches. The main room is pretty roomy, you can move about without stepping on other customers. The furniture is far beyond well-worn, but still functional. There are tables with two chairs and several leather (looking at least) couches.

The girls on stage were showing bare breasts and nipples, no pasties. Most were aggressive in smothering a customer's face in boobs. A couple of them did stage-side mini lap dances (Playmates style for those who've been there). One, Gia, would lock her legs around a customer's neck and draw him in. This is all the way I remember things used to be at many clubs, but don't seem to be any more at most. At least one did a lap dance on one of those leather (?) couches right out in the public area. Some customers were successful at getting a girl to hang out with them on one of those couches for a long time. Not me, but this was only my second visit in three years so I'm not a regular. There were several 'make it rain' types there on this night, so my piddly little stage tips didn't get me as much attention as they usually do.

A 5 song private dance cost $90. There were shorter and longer options but I don't remember the price exactly. I certainly recommend the closed door rooms.
