Which club are we even talking about here?
[QUOTE=Amixam]Thanks for all the feedback! Very helpful.
There was something I forgot to mention. At the end of the night the server came to the table (she was very nice all evening) and brought me a "rate sheet". Apparently it was a rate sheet that showed VIP rates. She suggested that I pay the VIP rate for 3 hours since she sat with me for 3 hours. Paying with a credit card, the total was something like $500. At that point I told her to pound sand (in a nice way), but felt obligated to tip her something. The funny thing is the dancer just sat there with a halo over her head, and didn't say a word.
You guys are probably right. She new I was from out of town. I was dressed in business attire so she probably saw dollar signs above my head.
Here's the follow up question: When I was leaving, she gave me her e-mail address to let her know when I'm back in town (not surprising after reading everyone's comments). If I do decide to contact her and meet her at the club, would I need to tip her on the next visit if she were to sit with me all night since technically I'd be reaching out to her?
How would you approach this if you were me and you visited the club again to see her? Would you feel obligated to tip her?
By the way, I really appreciate everyone's feedback. Thanks a lot![/QUOTE]I sure would like to know. You should put it out there. Did I miss something? We are here to help each other out. If a club is duppin' a brother, let's pass the word. Isn't that what the forum is for. Pass along good experiences and bad ones. My $0.02.
Time to look in the mirror
It is interesting to read all the advise we as a group have given out to poor Amixam. He got taken for $120 by a stripper. What a disaster.
I wish all I had ever been taken for was $120. I would have a bunch more money in my pocket. And I haven't been in as deep as some that I've read here. No rent or car payments, no bail, just $100 here or there for something that seemed critical at the time and a promise.
So, Amixam, consider yourself lucky that you learned an important life lesson for only $120.
You aren't going to believe this
I stopped into my local spot last night and ran into my favorite dancer. She immediately ran over and greeted me. After talking a few minutes, she told me she had something to tell me and for me to not flip out. Oh. Boy.
Apparently last time I was in, and we were in the VIP area, another dancer went to the DJ booth, where the VIP cameras are, and printed off several pictures of us having fun. The the other dancer took the photos and sent them via cell phone to my favorite dancer, her boyfriend and several other people close to my favorite, in an effort to make the boyfriend jealous and generally fuck with my fav.
Yes, pictures of me with a stripper in VIP are floating around. Somewhere, without my knowledge.
Apparently, the stripper who took the photos has been fired and banned from all of their properties, but the idea that there are pics of me out there without my consent is kinda unnerving.
Just a cautionary tale for you all. I got caught up in stripper drama and had no idea what was going on.
Clubs for out of town visitors
[QUOTE=Justguessing]Only downtown Club is the Red Garter, 437 S Illinois St. That would be about 3+ blocks south of Hyatt. The East side on the complex your Hotel is in borders on Illinois Street. This is regarded generally as a low mileage strip club in town.
I'm not sure of the reference to going South on I65 but the closest on that trip would be the Gold Club. Exit 120 on I65 is Lafayette Road Gold Club is 3551 Lafayette Road. Interstate exit is at about 47th street. Your are about 1. 5 miles from north end of track at that club. Club opens at 3 PM.
Club Rio is about 1 mile away from that path on West 38th street opens at noon I believe.
Best suggestion would be a cab to the Brass Flamingo. It is located SE of Downtown about 5 miles from Hotel.[/QUOTE]Great assessment for our visitor! I would only add that the Red Garter can be fun during big downtown events, like Colts games or big events at the stadium or fieldhouse. Perhaps it would be ok during the MotoGP, but not sure. Most any club will let you in for free with your same-day sport event ticket stub, so use them if you can. Some have free passes in the Nuvo weekly magazine.
Thanks for the info gentlemen !!

If there was one club in the area where can get the most "BANG" for your buck that still has some decent talent which would it be ? I will make the rounds and report back how an out of towner was treated . Thanks again , God Speed
Text to get in free @ BBF
It's on the signs in the bathroom now but 2 weeks ago it was announced that if you text: BRASS to 25543 they will send you updates to your cell and then gain free admission by simply showing the text message to the door man. I did it twice this week and Bingo, it worked both time. No more Nuvo hunting for me for the free ads!
Another great meeting of the board @ BBF
A great turnout yesterday as Me, Tonylove, JohnnyZ, HFW, Powertool, Illapp and Freckle Freak sampled the cheap beer and the dancers at the Brass. There is a lot of new talent there on late afternoons and they were very friendly. Most were the spinner type which was definitely OK with me! Tony even gave a very good lapper to one of the sweet hearts and Powertool had to join it. A lotta good laughs and really great woman. Sorry I had to leave early guys but the UTR was waiting. Wow, I'll be giving you all the lowdown on the hoedown.
