Disposition of a Rattkesnake LOL
That is Karma, it took me a minute to get on her good side but she is cool with me now. Just don't stand in front of the no standing signs. LOL. Renee is the waitress, she has always been ok with me but when those 2 team up on someone, watch out. Good to see you post again JM.
[QUOTE=JMAbacus;6804384]Was in the area and thought I would check out Strokers. Expectations are always low. Arrived around 5. Maybe 20 Customers and a dozen dancers. Not a lot of activity. Was looking for a slender dancer. I saw a couple but both were mostly busy and not available. Many of the dancers just sat at tables and stared across the room or played on their phone. Seems like they may have given up on any dances. The ones that approached me were down in the 5 range. I waited roughly 30 minutes for anyone decent to dance and gave up. Oddly, the female bartender with the nice figure and disposition of a rattlesnake said hello when I ordered my water. First time in 6 years that I can recall. The stocky one that bartends and waits tables actually waved at me and said good to see you as I was departing. Now all they need is to bring the dancers and customers back. DJ mumbled something about it being slow and that was all. At least he was quiet for a change which was the high point of the visit.
So, thinking things could not get any worse, I stopped at Pin Ups. Only a handful of cars in the parking lot around 6 PM. Is it possible that the "new" Pin Ups is worse than the old Pin Ups? After this third visit I can say for day shift it is a wasteland and yes, worse than the prior club. Free to park. $5 to enter. I asked the door lady when the $5 dances ended? She said she had no idea, needed to ask the dancers. Maybe 8-10 customers and about the same number of dancers. I saw one slender dancer in the 6-7 range that was busy dancing, then counting her money, then practicing her dance moves in the mirror. I attempted to get her attention but was not successful. The remaining dancers were in the 2-5 range and most were fatties with protruding stomachs. Eventually, I decided to get a few dances from the least offensive or tallest midget in the group. She was tatted from head to toe and involved in a conversation with a huge dancer and a customer that was not getting any dances. As she climbed off the stool I said $5 per dance? No, she said, I get $10. Unfortunately, she had spent a fortune on bad tattoos, but neglected her teeth, which I could now see were pointing in many odd directions. I told her to have a nice day and threw in the towel. The only damage was my water and ringing in the ears from the ear splitting volume of the music being played to an empty room.
I would say this was the most uninspiring Strip Club visit in the past 7 years. Guess I am out the ATL strip clubs until Vivide fills in the potholes as the Westside is out of my driving range. As always YMMV and I hope that it does for anyone that tries these spots.[/QUOTE]
