I just got a call from a dancer tonight, offering up her services. I haven't talked to this girl for like 5 years. When I met her she was working at GGC and I can't remember her stage name but she told me her real name was Nikki. We hooked up a few times but she dropped off the face of the earth.
Tonight, the phone rings, and I recognized the voice immediately, she introduced herself as Danielle from the Ritz, asked for me by name and asked if I remembered her. (She used MY stage name that I give dancers. Why use real names?) I said that I did and she told me she was available for 'fun' if I was ever interested. I told her I didn't have time (I'm with my kid this weekend) and she told me to call her when I had time. She told me she was going through her old phone and found my number. I used to run into her in public all the time in Northern Baltimore County at Target, the grocery store, a regular bar. Etc. She was always up for freebies with me so I took advantage a couple times.
Has anyone had any intel about where she's been? I didn't have time to talk but it seems shady, or at least shadier than she used to be.
The last time I saw her, she had short blonde hair (dishwater blonde) to her shoulders, and angel wings tattooed on her back. Blue eyes. 5'5" and about 90 lbs, a true spinner.
Anyway, I've been happily dating "civilians" for the last 5 years, and I haven't even been to a strip club in a year. But, things have been drying up on the dating front recently so I'm thinking about it a little bit.

Having been to a lot of strip clubs all over the USA, I can say the block has no equal! There are guys that prefer the big clubs with beautiful silicone breasts and the expensive prices to have fun with the girls. The block offers the most fun for your buck, period. Where else can you get personal with a girl just seconds after sitting down? Tijuana is probably the only place more fun than the block, but nowadays, you might get shot down there. Really, I have been to Houston (strip capital of the world) , Atlanta (Gold Club, beautiful girls, fully nude, no additional fun) , Denver (Shot Gun Willy's, no additional fun) , all Boston area clubs (they all suck, no additional fun) , DC (Goodguys, nice girls, nice lit up full nudity, but no additional fun) , West Virginia (same as DC) , Scottsdale (Pricey) , Tucson (nasty girls and no additional fun) , Oklahoma City & Tulsa (crazy girls but still no additional fun, Jacksonville (hot girls, no additional fun) , Miami (hot girls, no additional fun, Panama City, FL (all 2 clubs suck) , Orlando, Sarasota, Tampa (Mons Venus is the only exception before it was closed, the hottest Florida girls, for. 2 you could feel right a home on a totally nude girl for the length of one song, but still no taking out) , Chicago (nada, zero) , Milwaukee (not even funny) , Green Bay (one or two clubs, they suck) , Anchorage and Fairbanks (no fun. Whoever came up with this no additional fun rules? I can keep going on all the cities of this great country of ours, but. (no additional fun!).
Really, the block in Baltimore has something that no other city in the USA has to offer. I am a person who traveled every weekend to a different city and always came back on a Sunday night to the Washington / Baltimore area where I live. Right before going home, If I did not land to late, I would go straight to the block. Yes, the girls are not the best looking, but. Where else can you feel like the best looking guy, the king of the world, have two, three girls. All on a working man's budget.
By the way, if you want to make me Honorary Mayor of the Block, I will take on the challenge and give it my best. We are lucky to have this place right in our backyard and I hope it never gets shut down.
Note: *St. James in Houston is the only club that compares to the block clubs, but it is only one club; not 10+ clubs that we have here.
[QUOTE=Ebdawgg; 1193656]Max,
I hope you get this in time.
The block is great. Always has been and still is. The problem though is with varying definitions of great. You know, one man's trash is another man's treasure.
That said, if you count on and enjoy a trashy experience as I do then the block is perfect. I tend to go for sleazy adult entertainment and think the block is among the best places for that. On the other hand many of my friends prefer "gentleman's clubs" and they hate the block and are disappointed any time they go. Me? The exact opposite: my expectations are always exceeded and one way or another I am usually throughly entertained.
From what I gather, since the fire attendance and revenue are down and folks there seem more willing to bargain than in the past; and they were always willing to bargain. At this point though you're more likely to get a favorable bargain than in the past.
At the very least the block will be a cultural experience that includes naked women. If you go with your mind open and follow good common sense and heed some of the warnings you'll find here (RTFF) you'll have a great time provided the general atmosphere is to your liking.
Take a tour, go from club to club, be free with $ingles and make sure any bartenders are well tipped (see $ingles) and you are sure to have a good time and encounter friendly faces. It's all about money but you are likely to get a fair and happy exchange if you are respectful, not stupid and on your toes. Use cash; don't use your CC. Though plenty have reported good experiences that way, cash will keep you at your predetermined limit. It's too easy to mess up or be ripped off with a CC.
Keep your eyes open and the block will be a fun place. Have fun. I may run into you tonight. I'll be the old white guy with the stack of singles. [/QUOTE]
I have heard, although not experienced, that additional fun can be had in some of the WVA clubs near Charlestown. Leaving the USA briefly, a few years ago the Canadian side of Niagra Falls had clubs with 9's and 10's, much additional fun, for a reasonable $
I would like to be the first one to place into nomination, for the position of Co- Ombudsman of the seediest, low-down degenerated, swill sucking, best-worse place in Amerca,"The Block". A position recently vacated by the late Wm. Donald Schaeffer (The greatest Cheerleader for Baltimore ever!) Our own pair of de-generated, lucky not to be disease ridden, or put away, Ebadawg (?) and our new poster Spderman888. These two gentelmen imbibe the essence of our Hobby. They truly "Get It". They understand that what we have in our own backyard is truly a miracle. I remember my first "first hand" visit toThe Block, back in 1968. It was after the spring riots, and I finally got a chance to experience the circus midway atmosphere of The Block. The sequined costumes, the tassles and paisties, the three piece combo playing the bump and grind beat for the strippers. First song, the removal of the outer costume, the next song, off came he bra. And the last song the runway strut in pasties, and panties. If you were breathing, the dancers would sit next to you and ask if you wanted some company. After talking a bit, you would buy a bottle of champagne, and make your way to the rear area of the club. I remember twice picking up crabs, once at the Jewel Box, and once at Boot's. If that wasn't to your liking, there was always the Massage parlors, around the corner on Gay St. I was lucky enough to have a friend whose parents owned one of the bars, and he showed me the ropes during several visits to that "Jewel in the Rough" somebody decided to call "The Block"
Thanks for letting me spend some time remembering some fond memories of my past. Be safe.

GTR[/QUOTE]Wow; the title says it all. I don't think I have ever been complimented so nicely before. I'll ignore the insult of calling me a gentleman and just soak in the kind words :)
GTR, I think you have me beat on length of experience but compared to many I go back a ways. I remember hitting the block shortly before my 18th birthday when the drinking age was 18 and just moments (or what seemed like moments) before the 80s got into full swing with the election of Reagan. No politics here; just a reference to time.
I do though remember the clubs where the Benton Bldg is now; when The Block extended east past Gay Street for a club or two; had drinks with Johnny Stacatta; and saw one of the great shows of all time at the 2 O'clock Club. A big old stripper with the biggest knockers ever carry around a chair by placing its back under her boobs. Oh and I saw A BAND play for strippers there as well.
Oh and I remember too when there was almost a second "Block" up where The Godess is now (and was then). I even worked with the daughter of one of the club owners. Heard tons of stories about the joys and perils of a cash business.
What's not to like about The Block? OK; I know what's not to like but that's the stuff I like. It's not like I enjoy seedy and sleazy to the exclusion of anything else but since it's here and available and I subscribe to the notion that a dirty mind is a joy forever, why not? It's great.
When I think of all of the crazy and cool and wild and weird things I have seen - and perhaps done; I don't use the forums as a confessional - I wouldn't trade those experiences for lifetime free pass to Scores. Now, if somebody has a lifetime free pass to Scores, I'll take it; but not in trade for all those years of craziness.
I haven't been in a year or so and have been meaning to go since the fire. Now that I am writing this with a big smile on my face I think I might make it down there next week as I have an excuse to be out of the house. No real excuse for smelling like cigarettes and strippers but I can get out of the house at least.
If you ever saw my wife: brilliant, beautiful, body of a super model, commands respect when she enters a room, perfect manners, dresses perfectly, incredibly well spoken, top of her field, always composed and always intellectually on target and perfect to bring home to mom (who likes her better than she likes me; and she does like me)...
You'd understand why a night of sleaze on The Block is worth every penny.
Like I said, I'll be the old guy with the stack of singles and a big smile.

I go back to the mid 60's when I was in my 20's and snuck away from my wife to visit the Gayety. Still remember a stripper (Pantera. The Panther Girl) who popped olives out of her **** and tossed them to an eager audience.
Like you, I have a great wife (#3) but still love the seediness of the Block and all it has to offer. I go every so often on Tuesday afternoon and always have fun one way or the other.

[/QUOTE]Thanks VERY MUCH for your advice and for others' as well. I had to abort my trip because my dad (87) had a stroke the day before my planned trip to the Block. He recovered reasonably well, but, I spent a week with him and my mom helping them get adjusted to their new "normal." I will take another pass through the forum and, perhaps, ask a couple of more dumb questions. But, my focus is elsewhere for now.
This likely belongs in another forum, but I like the strip cubs the best. It has been a few years since I have seen offers where a few folks pool together $ for an hour or 2 of photo oppertuinies with one or two "models" usually in motel / hotel rooms. Does anyone know if this still goes on. I mostly heard about it in DC clubs.

I just got to stay clean for the the little woman.[/QUOTE]Like you, I too have a sort of fascination with the (sexual) seedy side of the track. Also, like you, I have to stay clean for the little woman. That doesn't however keep me from enjoying the pleasures that I can have (on and off the Block) when I'm visiting Baltimore. My first visit to the block was on an overnight visit for a job interview the next day. That was before I discovered this forum. (And it may not have existed back in 1994.) Met a girl in the Plaza on a slow Tuesday night. Bought her a $10 drink. And for a $20 tip she offered me a BJ / HJ while sitting right there at the bar. Damn, what a memory. Of course it was the Plaza, and at that time it was probably the seediest bar on the Block.
Since then I come back to visit when I can (usually a couple of times a year) , and always manage to enjoy myself, even if all I do is wander from bar to bar checking out naked women (a favorite hobby of mine). While most of the bars on the Block have a "Back Room" (or equivalent) , as I've gotten older, I have found that I prefer a more private setting (like my hotel room) to discuss the latest news and current events with a lady, and get to know each other in a more biblical manner. And I find that I can almost always find take out with a lady of my fairly exacting standards during an evening cruising the Block. In the past I've found that I could do that at a cost of from $0 (one time only) to a max of $1. 4 (also one time only) , but more usually for $0. 8 to $1.
I'm coming to Baltimore again in about 2 weeks, and am again looking forward to the visit. I'm hoping that the fire and increased competition among the girls will work to my benefit. So if any of you BLOCKheads are at the Block the week that I'm there, I'll be the young-looking old guy with the stack of singles who almost always tips the bartender. S / he can make or break your day.
I remain just. One Man

Went to the GGC for the first time in a long time last night. Primarily because I was driving and had to take a grunty (TMI I know but funny) and I know their bathroom is super clean. I ended up sitting down at the stage and tipping a really fine black girl. She was bottomless and got a lot closer than a lot of the girls at GGC will, putting her pussy about 6 inches from my face. I felt like I was back in NY where the girls onstage will do that. I was able to give her a puss a nice stroke on the tip without anyone noticing.
I don't usually get a dance at GGC either but Vivian who is is super sexy (about 5'8" dark brown long hair, great body) sat down next to me and we started chatting it up. Turns out we are both from near the same place in WNY. I don't think she was bullshitting me either. After about 20 minutes talking we went to the LD area and sat down. At first she told me the rules and scolded me for touching but after the second song she was putting my hands on her ass, sucking my ear, unbuttoning everything I had and grinding her pussy really hard into my dick. I think that as business has declined at the GGC over the last couple of years the girls have gotten a little looser there. I got a private room there for about $275 a couple of years ago with a $50 bar tab and didn't get shit and had some bouncer coming up to the room every 5 minutes. As usual, the Gold Club has some really hot girls and it was a good time however it's the next morning and my balls are still full and I had to explain why I reeked on Chanel to my girlfriend. Probably should have just gone to my AMP as usual but I was in the mood for something different.
