Strip Club Reports

[Darth Cosmos]

I like full friction grind dances.

I also like girls around 19-20 yo.

Money no object.

Where is the best place in chicago to play.

Nw burbs if possible.

So a couple months ago I went to Polecatz with my girlfriend. She's bi and it was fun but a bit dead (about 9-10 pm so somewhat early). Got a private dance in the room but were interrupted by bouncers 3 x in 30 minutes. Clear there are cameras in the room; and peeved me bc I tipped the bouncer $100 assuming that would mean they'd leave us alone. Wanted to ask for my tip back. Anyway, nice club. Female friendly. But you all know that.

Here's my question. I used to be a stripclub regular when I traveled a lot for work. Standard was $400 for 30 minutes in the "champagne" room and was almost always able to negotiate at least a BJ for that total (this was Atlanta and Miami mostly). This was 2017/18/19. Other than the above, I have not been back to the club in years. And never really much in Chicago area. Obviously some clubs are no-go on extras (see above) but for those that are (390? What is the expected donation for extras? Clearly varies by girl, but have you been successful negotiating play for around $500. Or have prices shot up like vacation town real estate? Have a free weekend and thinking of diving back in but also want to be aware of the coin expected nowadays. TIA.

Needed more dancer cheerleaders. Only saw three, one left early and one was more trashy than the good-girl-does-bad-things fantasy. The girl charging for cover and some of the wait staff had the outfits, and a few dancers had cutesy jersey tops on. But most dancers just dressed like any other Friday night. Kind of a letdown.

Staff did the theme better than the dancers, but PVC goalposts on stage or bouncers in varsity jackets aren't the draw. Wanted to see more pleated skirts and Keds. If one of the dancers could have pulled off the Cowboys cheerleader look, with big hair and cleavage under a tie top, she would have gotten a lot of my money. Alas, no.

And no, it's not a "fetishizing young girls" thing. I like MILFy, curvy, sexy women in their prime who know what they're doing, not clueless skinny college girls. But outfits, from schoolgirl to secretary, are fun, and Polekatz usually does a good job of dancers following the theme. Their Halloween party is the best of the Chicago clubs, and probably will be again. This one, though, fell flat.

My two cents.

Atlantis is in Ford Heights but your entire driving distance from the expressway to the club is less than a half mile. There are always county cops on the other side of 394 but I have never seen one looking to jam anyone up on the East side where Atlantis is, the conversation is moot.

Was at 390 and was told by a reliable source that the cameras in the private dance booths are there to keep your dicks in your pants. They are pushing that activity into VIP where the club makes more money.

Ford Heights is so economically depressed that their own police department disbanded over a decade ago. Tommy Dart's boys patrol it now. And they definitely have contact with the owner of Atlantis ad I wouldn't be surprised if some of the staff or even dancers were CI's (gang and drug trafficking concerns).

They're not looking to bust mongers out there, but just know that they're out there, and they absolutely do not f around.

Follow-up: I paid a visit last night. Lucked out quickly and nicely with a curvy short Asian dancer. It went very well.

The above post does make me leery, but I definitely fall into "monger only" territory. Ladies, adult beverages and greasy food are my only vices. No one's going to mistake me for a gang member. My only risk is probably being collateral damage if I'm in the wrong place at the wrong time, knock on wood.

It was an amazing era. One Step Beyond in Melrose park and the upstairs bar in Berwyn were amazing. That's the place that got bombed early one Sunday morning as a message from The Boys that you need to be sharing some of those earnings. I got fucked snd sucked in that place often. There was some hot Latina one time that I did shots of Goldschlager with and when we got back behind the curtain, she ground on me for a few minutes while I sucked her boobs, and then she unzipped me, pulled her g string to the side, and slid on to me with a big moan. Other girls and guys were watching and laughing. She was like, " oh I needed that".

Little Debbie Snackcakes that ran a lot of those shows was eventually charged with some kind of financial crimes and that was the end of those shows. I wished I had saved the calendar they put out as a reminder of those girls.

Well damn, does mean that this has basically ended? There were some pretty crazy places in Kankakee, Blue Island, and the Indiana harbor back in the day. Parkway Inn, Beer Barrel, and a bunch that I just knew where they were at. I remember Off Broadway in Bradley getting raided because they had topless table servers during the fashion show. That was a crazy place.

Atlantis is technically in FORD Heights, not Chicago Heights.

What's the review on this club? It's around Chicago heights so it's shit area but looks good.

I had written it off for a long time after a Sunday night visit when there was no one there, dancers included. Then I went during a more prime time. I'd be there more often if it wasn't on the other side of the world for me coming from north of Chicago. There's fun to be had if you know what you're doing.

Area is fine. It's surrounded by empty fields on three sides and the highway on the fourth. It's not like anyone's going there for any reason other than to be there. Valet parking.

Club itself is very nice. The stage has big columns; it almost looks like the dancers are emerging from a bank. Really high ceiling. Honestly, the place is probably too big. It feels like there's a lot of wasted space.

I've had a lot of fun with a couple different dancers there through the years. I won't say extras are as accessible as you might find in a Detroit club, but again, there's fun to be had if you know what you're doing. Play the game, be subtle, wait until your second or third time seeing a dancer to build trust and inquire about possibilities and good things can happen, though not with everyone. If a dancer takes you to one of the dance rooms further in the back, it's a good sign.

Happy hunting.

It's not a shit area at all. Right off 394 at USA 30. It's like most any strip club. If you find a dancer you like and you've got game repeat visitor her and spend money. Chances are good you'll get take out. A few years ago I banged a mixed big titty dancer from there for months OTC.

That restaurant was a blast, it was called Luciano's. Not so lucky if you get the drift!!

I found it very late in the game, I think I was there 3 or 4 times and maybe 2 days before the bombing. Interesting that they bombed the downstairs instead of up where the action was taking place. Its been so long but IIRC that upstairs was just a hastily constructed bar with back room just for the fashion shows. That poor couch in the back room, what a beating it took LOL. Industrial Strip opened up as the shows were being shut down and a lot of the girls went there in the afternoons and the wild wild west continued there until they remodeled it.

Thanks! I knew it was an Italian name. Sunny morning message delivered. No one was hurt. Minor property damage. But the lingerie shows stopped after that. Good for me as I spent a lot of money there.

Homers (then called “Members Only”) in its heyday was like that too. There was a mixed race Thai girl there that rocked my world. She lived in Hyde Park. We need the return of the lingerie bars

From my perspective the best value ever, I feel bad for the guys who missed it. I knew several guys that traded coke or whatever with a bleached blonde who later got a boob job and was a playmate. Without a doubt the wild wild west, secret back rooms, BJ's in the parking lot or under the table, literally everything was happening.

Do any bars still do fashion / lingerie shows? These were big in the 90's. These happened as far south as Kankakee and in the Indiana harbor as well as Chicago and the burbs. You bought raffle tickets and got to take the lingerie off of the model in the back if you won. And you could negotiate extras as well.
