A quick Friday afternoon stop in August

Place: Apparently, the air conditioning has been out of commission all summer. They have 3-4 indoor AC units to cool the place down, so the temperature was not uncomfortable. It was in the mid-90’s outside that afternoon. Some areas of the large front room are warmer and cooler than others. If you are sitting near one of these AC units, it is difficult to hold a conversation, as these units are loud. Add the music, and loss of hearing due to listening to loud music all my life, and, well, I had to move to other side of the room.

On a Friday afternoon, the front parking lot was full, and I had to park in the back lot. Walking in, I thought it was going to be so crowded I was not going to get a seat at the large oval-shaped bar. But that was not the case; there were plenty of seats and it did not seem crowded at all.

PEOPLE: I have been a patron of this club for about a decade, and it has definitely changed. After the pandemic, I am told the management changed. The ethnicity of the dancers has changed from a mostly Caucasian to an African American ethnicity. Now, I actually prefer AA, as they generally are more comfortable with their sexuality. That is just my opinion; I could be way off. If I encounter a beautiful Caucasian dancer, they usually are stand-offish and difficult to connect with. Again, this is just my experience.
