Checking in on the Rhino in 2025...

I visit the Rhino about once a year when I'm in Vegas, so I generally have a feel for the place and how it evolves over time. Here's some observations from my most recent visit, July 2025.

1. Super important: the club is now non-smoking (vaping still allowed). This is a big change. Positive for most I'm sure, but probably negative for others. So be aware.

2. Calling ahead to get on the guest list still works for free admission (I did this on both Thursday and Friday night). You have enter through the rear VIP, but saves you the cover. Club is clean, comfortable, high-end.

3. I honestly felt like dancer quality was down quite a bit. I prefer natural and petite, which was in short supply, but setting aside that preference, there just seems to be a lot more Cuban & Latina girls than in the past. Of course Cuban & Latina girls can be very hot, but in my experience (on average) I find them to be more transactional / less friendly. I like to develop conversation and a little chemistry before spending the $$ and I find this difficult with Latina girls. For me, this made the experience worse vs. past visits. [as an aside, stripper hotness is negatively correlated with economic strength... perhaps a downturn will bring quality back up]
