Vegas Turned Up To 11

I ended up at Sapphire Las Vegas on a Saturday night, somewhere around 9p. Place was already packed, and right away it hit me just how massive it is. It's not just a strip club—it's a full-on production. Giant space, high ceilings, LED lights everywhere, music pounding like you’re in a nightclub.

There’s a huge main stage in the center with seating all around it, and a bunch of smaller stages off to the sides. Girls are constantly rotating on and off. I probably saw over a hundred different dancers throughout the night. It's one of the premier Vegas clubs AND it's Vegas, so there's a very good mix of body types and ethnicities. It felt like every few minutes someone new was coming up to say hi, ask where I’m from, and offer a dance. Most were nice, some were pushier than others. You could tell who was on autopilot and who actually wanted to connect for a second before making the pitch.

The vibe is high-energy. If you’re not into constant stimulation, music, lights, people moving all around, it could be a lot. There’s not really a quiet corner to post up in. Even when you’re not at the main stage, you’ve got servers coming by nonstop, DJs on the mic, and girls doing the rounds. It’s Vegas, so subtlety isn’t part of the package.
