Wow.

First strip club I've ever been to where the stage was in the center of two mobile homes put together (doublewide!) Actually, it wasn't a stage so much as a rectangular pit with a row of chairs on each side. In fact the whole place seemed to be 4 mobile homes linked together. The staff seemed to compensate by being dressed in tuxes (well the DJ and door guy), the bartender was a she but formally dressed as well. All were friendly and there was no cover (two years ago...); just a check of one's ID. Anyway's, I entered, got a soda at the bar ($2 plus $1 tip), and proceeded to plop down at the back of the stage room.

There were 5 dancers working/rotating (doing two song sets). None were 8s or up, but then again all were better than 5s. So, for such a small, small club, surprising talent. How'd the girls make their money? Selling semi-private (behind dividers) lap dances (I think for $30 each.) How'd they not make money? The club's "free taxi dance" offer: after each gal's two songs in the pit, they'd give each guy present in the audience a free 20 second, full-nude, semi-grind lap dance at their seat. A nice bonus for the guys and an advertising tool for the gals. I couldn't believe it was free and the place overall was so cheap. So I told the gals when they'd come by (I stayed for one rotation of gals) I didn't need the taxi dance (guess I thought I'd be giving them a break.) One gal came back and struck up a conversation. I found out a dance was $30 (wow! Where's the medium in this place?! They should charge $15 per dance...$10 to the dancer and $5 for the house.) I tipped her $2 just to be nice. So, down $5 for an hours' worth of entertainment. Can't beat that.
