[QUOTE=PlaynAtl;3226191]You are crossing jurisdictions. The BP stuff is federal, while the Flashers stuff is local. Not a surprise for Sandy Springs. They always have a corncob up their ass in that area. I'm surprised the fun lasted as long as it did at Flashers. Given that I was always quoted somewhere around 100-200 for the room, and another 100 for the dancer, I'm not sure what the attraction was. I could rent three holes on BP for that. Before the rename, I went up the street to Main Stage and got takeout for 150. The only reason I went to Flashers was the 10 stick shifting dances and occasional slide or suck on the floor. Is it election year in Sandy Springs? Hope they leave Follies as is for now.[/QUOTE]Back about 20 or more years ago, Flashers was the first real "extras" club in terms on non-black strippers (there were some black extras clubs before that, like Club Nikki on Stewart Avenue and Gentleman's Club in downtown Atlanta); indeed, I got my first stripper BBBJTCWS at Flashers back in the mid 90's ("Jade", 18 yo Cambodian spinner, now married with kids and a registered nurse up at Gwinnett Medical Center; time does fly); good times!
So Flashers kind of coasted on that early reputation as the "Follies" of its era, even when it went to seed and the hot spinners morphed into skanks and addicts.
As for Follies, it gets raided from time to time anyway (and for good reason, as there's zero subtlety to the place, with weed smoke and fucking in clear display), and it's fair to say that eventually it won't bounce back; for now, though, I think it's safe.
