sinclair's Review

I went to The Men’s Club at 20:45 on a Saturday night. When I pulled up, there was a beggar harassing a customer walking out, which is a typical annoyance in Flint Town. There was a $10 cover charge at the door. The music was very loud; it was difficult for me to hear anything said to me by the staff and dancers. Sincweisers were a very reasonable $4. Before 19:00, Sincweisers are $2.50. On Sundays, domestic beers are $1.50 and import beers are $2 up until 20:00. I had a Pepsi (no Dr. Pepper or Coke was available) to sober out at the end of the night for $2. It came in a twelve ounce glass with ice. There is no food served other than potato chips. The ATM only allows a maximum of $100 per transaction, charging a $5 fee per transaction. Retrieving a large sum of money for a VIP room is a pain in the ass with the low withdrawal limit.

The main stage is an oval island in the middle of the room with two poles. It is about two feet off of the ground. Both of the poles spinned, but most dances did not have much in the way of pole skills. The bar is along the back wall. There was a massive amount of liquor bottles lined up on the shelves behind the bar. I have never seen so many liquor options in a gentlemen's club. To the right of the bar is the DJ booth. The right wall has multiple televisions, including one displayed on a large projector screen. There is a door on the left wall that leads to a fenced-in outdoor smoking patio.

There were eight dancers working. They graded out between a 5 and a 7.5 on a ten point scale. The manager has a preference for non-fat white and Hispanic dancers. Black dancers and overweight dancers are mostly prevented from working at The Men’s Club. The two Cuban dancers did not speak English well and loitered with a group of Cuban customers the whole time. Irritatingly, some dancers did not remove their tops on stage. You can touch the dancers when you tip the stage. The crowd was cheap, so tipping five or six dollars would get a dancer to come find you after she finished her set on stage. Songs seemed to be clipped to approximately two minutes and forty-five seconds.
