Marcella is not back at Rio
[QUOTE=SixTNine;4025862]Layla has been gone, I hear we won't be seeing her for a while, and Marcella is there at times but really haven't seen her around much lately. I have just about quit going, not like it used to be.[/QUOTE]I've seen a couple of recent references to seeing Marcella back at Club Rio. I've been FB friends with her for a long time and am pretty sure she hasn't worked at Rio for close to two years. She is currently getting her life back together after some setbacks -- drugs, abusive ex, jail time -- and will probably reappear at Rio in the not too distant future. I'm happy to report that she has been clean for one year as of yesterday!

PT's, a hot waitress and dumb patron (me)
First time poster here. So I admit to being a Stripclub noob, only been 3 or 4 times in my life so I made some total rookie mistakes this weekend. Besides feeling embarrassed for being a stereotypical easy mark I had a blast. But I am looking for some veterans to offer a bit of advice please.
This was all at PT's over the weekend. My first and most obvious mistake was that I had to use a credit card (Chase marked the ATM withdraw as 'fraud', of course phone was locked away elsewhere so couldn't verify the fraud alert). As the night wore on I couldn't help but pick up a good vibe from our waitress. She told me it was $400 for her and I to go to a private room. I said what the hell, only live once and went for it. We had a great time, a lot of heavy petting and whatnot. So the next day I checked my credit statement and there are 3 separate $400+ charges! I am no blackout drunk so I know for sure I did not spend 2 hours in some room. Two charges on my credit card and one on my debt card. What the hell! Grand scheme of things it's not like game changing money but I am more pissed that someone thought they could steal from me.
Question: I am planning on going to PT's during the day this week for itemized receipt list to dispute the charges. What are my chances of getting some of that money back? Once again I feel like a moron but come on, that's straight fraud.
Now my next question. That same waitress wrote her number on a napkin for me. I did a forum search for her name on here and nothing came up which leads me to think it might not be an everyday thing. What's the change this an OTC deal? Or is she actually looking to hangout or whatever? We got rather personal in the back room. Not dumb enough to think after 10 min of talking she is totally into me but I want to have my eyes open if I do happen to contact her. More curious than anything.
If a senior members wants to send me a private message I can discuss it there (I will give her 1st name via private message, don't feel right posting it).
Thank you for any and all help!
Dispute it with the CC company immediately.
It could be an honest mistake. It may just be the earlier transactions were denied / on hold until your approval and that the new ones were added on inadvertently. PT's is legit. I would just dispute them as duplicate charges which actually happens all the time.

Harem House vs. Babes: The winner is Babes.
After spending the previous Friday night at PT's I decided to try the other two Pendleton Pike clubs, Babes and Harem House. The clear winner between these two is Babes. Kudos to the Babes manager. Harem House had about five unhappy looking customers when I walked in. There were no girls up on the stage, which is highly unusual for eleven on a Friday night. There appeared to be only three strippers in the whole club. If there were others, they need to get them out of the dressing room or wherever they were hiding. There was no variety. Two of the girls were unattractive black girls. The third girl, a little blonde named Stevie, was yelling at the bartender. She was pretty but spent the whole time hanging out with one guy. You can watch a pretty girl hanging out with a guy at any bar in the city so she was no asset to the club as a whole and was certainly not pulling in additional customers because the club was empty. Babes, on the other hand, instead of 5 customers had around 20 customers. They had a stage rotation going. They had several attractive girls with a good variety including a pretty little black girl named Alize, a dark haired part American Indian girl called Honey, a couple of buxom blondes and a cute little spinner type. They were all available to do lap dances. They also had an attentive waitress checking on the customers but not being overly obtrusive.
"Side work" is ubiquitous
[QUOTE=ShapopoJoe9745;4071038]Any strip clubs where the girls can be talked into a little side work?[/QUOTE]A better question would be "Are there any strip club where the girls CAN'T be talked into a little side work?" if by side work you mean seeing customers OTC. I suspect that at least some girls at every strip club are willing to extend their activities to hotel rooms or their residences. I've seen a lot of strippers OTC in the past couple of years -- it isn't that hard!
Carnivale in Rio Not What It Used To Be
I miss Layla, Bonnie, Jenell and Danielle. Three girls on early evening shift. Seemed slow for a Saturday. Beauty, Jade and a third dancer whose name I can't remember. Two hot brunettes clocking out as I got there. I think afternoon shift would have been better. Stayed for one round, stage side. Jade attentive, great ass, but just not a fan of too-hard, HR Puff 'and Stuff bolt ons. Beauty is a beauty. Tall, taut AA princess with a 1000 watt smile (amazing mouth), but lost her (justifiably) to a dude who was seriously making it rain. I get the sense she'd be worth it. Third girl, friendly goth girl with a great body but she was tied up with a regular and didn't come over, despite promises to the contrary. Didn't stay for "company". Just wasn't feeling it beyond Beauty, who I will for sure go back and see. Music at Rio still rivaled only by Dancer's. Just nothing there worth a $30 or VIP. Generally like the day shift and this visit was no exception.
No more hoeing in the club

I do NOT miss Layla -- if you do, I've heard that you can find her at PT's.
My current favorite at Rio sent me a long message on Monday beginning with "No more hoeing in the club". Apparently Rio is under new management and the girls were abruptly warned on Monday afternoon to desist from the naughty stuff in the VIP room or they could be fired. The consequences are predictable: girls who are inclined to do naughty stuff will just meet more customers OTC than they already do. As a matter of fact, I spent Saturday afternoon with my fav at her place.
The fun level at Rio dropped considerably early this year when the club was under scrutiny by the excise police but eventually returned to normal levels. I expect the same will happen this time, though it could take a month or longer for the club's new management to realize that extras on day shift are essential to its business model. In the meantime, I suggest that you do what I do: spend more time OTC with your carefully cultivated favorites!
Don't cheat the customers and they will come to your club
PT's seems to have improved recently. Friday night there were 30 girls and maybe 50 customers. There were so many customers when I walked in I had to circle around the club 3 or 4 times before I finally found the one empty table with a stage view. The back area seems under utilized with a partition blocking the view. They might want to take that out. Girls were telling me they had moved from other clubs because they make more money here. There were at least 8 or 9 really attractive ones. I got dances from Lady, a Mexican college girl who drives down from Ball State, and a large breasted girl with glasses. Both gave good grinds in the back, allowed touching, and were friendly. I think the improvement may be due to cracking down on cheating on the customers. There used to be problems with dancers telling customers lap dances were thirty, forty, even fifty dollars (they are twenty five) or saying they were twenty five but then informing the customer touching was x amount of dollars extra when they got to the back. They seem to be enforcing the price and even have up little signs in the back stating the price. Good decision. Short sighted strippers were formerly driving off customers permanently just to squeeze a few extra bucks out of them. I've also noticed on recent day visits if they don't have enough girls for a stage rotation or less than four girls in the club I'm let in free. Last time I went to Harem House I was charged seven dollars. I sat down, they called Stevie to the stage, she decided not to bother to go up on stage because she was leaving and I sat and looked at an empty stage for three songs. There were only two other girls in the club with an hour left before closing. The dancers shouldn't be leaving before the end of the shift, if they do have to leave they should tell the dj so he can take them out of the stage rotation, and if they are all walking out early the club shouldn't be charging the customers to come in to sit and look at an empty stage or to be limited to a choice of two girls for lap dances.

On my one visit to PT's on a Tuesday afternoon a few years ago, I paid $7 cover and some outrageous price (maybe $6. 50) for a Bud Light before I even saw a titty! Then a girl giving me a "dollar dance" wanted $5, a girl at the stage insisted on $2 at a time, and the one dancer I asked about lap dances quoted a price of $30. Remembering that Tuesday is 2-for-$20 day at Babes, I left PT's within thirty minutes and went half a mile down the road, where I paid NO cover, a bucket of *four* beers was $11 (it's now $13), dollar dances cost a dollar (as their name implies), stage tips cost a dollar, and lap dances cost $10 rather than $30. The greed of PT's and its dancers lost my business that day, probably permanently.
Requesting help looking for girl friendly BBW
I promised a friend I would find her a BBW that would give her a lap dance. Any suggestestion? Would probably prefer club other than Rio.
