[Quote]Milwaukee's Rhino (the strip club) endangered?
Yes, even adult entertainment clubs invoke trademark law at times.
An international chain known as Spearmint Rhino Companies Worldwide, Inc. Has gone after one of Milwaukee's newest strip joints in federal court, claiming the west side business called simply Rhino Adult Nightclub infringes on the chain's trademark and will confuse customers who think they're headed to the "world's leader in upscale adult entertainment."
According to a lawsuit filed Friday, lawyers for Spearmint Rhino called the Milwaukee club at 9440 W. National Ave. And were told by the manager, Biker Dave, that the club has in fact been asked if it's part of the Spearmint Rhino group.
A lawyer for Spearmint Rhino sent a cease and desist letter shortly after the Milwaukee club opened in mid-July, telling it to stop using the distinctive rhinoceros head logo, take down its website and destroy all advertising and promotional materials that might use the rhino head. (Spearmint's is below)
As of Friday, the website was still operating, but owners didn't immediately respond to email seeking response to the action for trademark infringement and unfair competition.
According to the lawsuit, the Spearmint Rhino's marks and name "are famous, and have been referenced in popular culture, including on the 'Tonight Show with Jay Leno, ' on the sitcom 'Two and a Half Men, ' in television shows 'South Park' and 'The Girls Next Door, ' and in the movie 'Matchstick Men, ' and have also been the subject of parody on television shows and movies."
The name and "associated rhinoceri imagery" have been trademarked.
The Milwaukee club's logo is a very similar rhino head, in red, facing right.[/QUOTE]

Aug. 27, 2012.[/QUOTE]The JS article is mostly correct. Rather than a court fight, the Rhino owners decided to change the strip club's name to Brooklyns. This seemed to be a very stupid move since there is a club on the northside (Teutonia or?) also named Brooklyns. Per the Rhino manager, the owners of the northside Brooklyns signed an agreement stating it was OK for the strip club to use the name. I didn't realize there was such a shortage of names or that the Rhino-Brooklyns' managment was so lacking in creativity that they couldn't come up with an original name. Maybe they should go back to Heartbreakers.
Ice
Cheetah Club or Golddiggers
Which one gives more bang for your buck? I've been to the cheetah club and never was offered take out. I have been to Rickey's as well with the same result.
WTF? You got to be kidding! No Way!
[QUOTE=Dmb4100;1608802]Which one gives more bang for your buck? I've been to the cheetah club and never was offered take out. I have been to Rickey's as well with the same result.[/QUOTE]I'm not sure what you're doing, but I've never been in a strip club with black dancers that DOESN'T offer take out. I mean, if you shout it across the room "[b]HEY! CAN WE HOOK UP OUTSIDE OF HERE? [/b]", you might as well shout "[red]Anyone want a dose of clap? [/red]"
Pick out a likely looking dancer. Buy her a drink. Have a lap dance. Make sure she honks you. Let your hands drift. Talk dirty to her. Grind your cock into her. THEN ask her if she ever dances bachelor parties or birthday parties. If she does, tell her you have a birthday coming up and you'd like her to dance at your party. When she asks how many guys will be there, say "Just me!"
The other tack is to wait for the next song to start. When she asks you if you'd like another dance, tell her you would, but you'd like a "REAL" one outside this place. Ask if she'd be up for that.
You want take out? You'll get more phone numbers than you know what to do with. The problem with these girls is they think they've got $300 coochie. My grandmother has $300 coochie, yo momma has $300 coochie, shit every woman on the planet has $300 coochie, but I aint payin' it. It's after you get the "yes" that you need to start negotiating.
Good luck out there.
Cooch.
God bless you all.
Take me out to the ballgame
