The Pink Pony promotes itself on...

The Pink Pony promotes itself on Atlanta TV, radio, in publications and through billboards. The time-tested rule of thumb that the more a strip club has to rely on paid advertising the less likely the place is a good value is true with the Pony.

To be fair, the club is not a rip-off like 2001 in Tampa or Shotgun Willies in Denver. But still, the Pony is overrated. The club is one of a corporate chain, which is part of the problem. The Pony's high ratings must be put into the context of the Atlanta strip club scene, which mostly is nude and always low mileage. Some perspective: Locals who don't get out much think the club is great. However, for those of you who travel, don't assume the high ratings mean lap dances and contact anywhere remotely close to some of the Tampa, El Paso and Vegas clubs. Contact dances are not on the menu in Fulton County.

The Pony's plus is a chance to see some of the best looking strippers in Atlanta butt naked, and to do it without the downtown hassle and repressive atmosphere of the Cheetah. Most of the girls at the Pony are in the 5-6 range. The club does, however, generally offer a couple 9s. Bad boob jobs abound.
