Is Carl's the only bikini bar still open or did that close, too?
[QUOTE=Scott40;6055752]Is Carl's the only bikini bar still open or did that close, too?[/QUOTE]Yes, Carls is the last remnant of what used to be a very active scene. It continues to operate because it's in Stone Park as opposed to all the others that were in Melrose Park. Bobby's is still open but does not have dancers anymore due to Melrose passing the 'Dancer Ban' ordinance. A few people have hinted at some private locations popping up but I do not know of any in that area. If anyone has info on these to share, I'd appreciate a private message.
FYI. Louies is now Madusas. Open for business but no girls working the hustle.
Just wondering, has anybody been to Madusas since it opened? Is it an okay place to catch a drink or two?
I heard that was was going on for years at the bars was because of a guy named Steve / Stevie who I've heard some refer to as "the biggest loser", is that true? Is he the main reason why the bars are shut down for good now?
[BLUE]Can we not mix the never fucking ending political stupidity with the looking for pussy to smash?
I don't give a fuck what color dildo you prefer having shoved up your ass (red or blue), just keep it off the forum.

Is there a backstory I am missing? The only place I know of that's still active is All Stars in McCook and that's quite a ways from Mannheim and lake Street. I definitely miss the old days. I have hope that there will be plenty more fun to be had.

He had fallen in "love" & started stalking both in person as well as online. He was making daily posts dragging her through the mud after she rejected him. I don't think he ever posted on this site because that type stuff isn't tolerated here. He was eventually arrested & put away for a while on an unrelated matter. Out of respect, I won't mention her name & I don't think she dances anymore. It was talked about in the bars a lot but that was about 10 or more years ago if I recall.
That had nothing to do with the bars closing as it was so long ago. The shooting at J's is what lead to the dancer ban. That has been discussed at great length over the past couple years. If you'd like to read back on the topic, go back about 13 pages to Oct / Nov of 2020, starting around posts mid 950's.
The only bar in the Mannheim area with dancers is Carls (because it's in Stone Park not Melrose).

Not privy to the convo regarding this person, however "falling in love with a dancer" is the beginning of the end imo! Has anyone else seen "dumb and dumber". I have done and said some crazy things in my long life, however after dealing with the element in my professional life when I first got started in a related business, never made that mistake not even once! Thanks to all for at least picking up the thread. Been so dead around here. Stosh.

The only bar in the Mannheim area with dancers is Carls (because it's in Stone Park not Melrose).[/QUOTE]I actually knew that dude and used to talk to him often at Carl's back around the 2005-2010 or so time period. He was a semi-regular there, we played pool often and he was actually fairly cool whenever I talked to him. The dancer he became obsessed with went by the name of Cindy but he was going through some serious family issues at the time and she seriously led him on to believe she was interested. He never, ever stalked her in person and only made a ton of posts online because he had a serious breakdown from all of the stress he was dealing with at the time. A lot of that was seriously blown out of proportion but I could see why with some of the posts that he made. He was locked up for a bit and learned from it. Last I heard about a year ago from a friend, he had been back in his right mind for several years and is working a regular job. He told me that Steve told him that he really regretted what he did saying he made a total fool of himself and is glad that a lot of the posts are gone now from the strip club site.
I quit the Mannheim scene after the J's shooting and after Louie's stopped having dancers. Is Carl's actually the only bar left still open with dancers? Haven't been to Carl's in at least 5 years and I much preferred it when it was the old building. I heard that the rest of the bars are gone now.

The actual strip clubs et al are all still there of course. J's tried a regular bar / restaurant and from what I saw it came and went quickly. What was the old playpen has been a mexican type place. The real issue with anyone opening up a quick in and out restaurant is that the street is very busy during the week and most all of that traffic is commercial. Now even if one had great food there is absolutely no where to pull of, grab a bite and get back on one's route with a truck of most sizes, let alone a big rig. Even that popular place at the north west corner of lake and heim I see big rigs straddle the middle lane, jump in for a bag and get back to their truck. Right now there is a lot of construction right there which makes it much worse. I understand uncle louie's is now also a restaurant or bar. So yea as reported here it's carls and from what I understand it's kind of gang banger ish so buyer beware. On another note bodies in egv at elmhurst and touhy is open and looks from the outside remodeled. Good luck and be safe all.

Haven't been to Heavenly Bodies in at least 10 years since the hot Eastern Euro girls were there. Have you ever been to the 15th Ave bookstore in Melrose? It is very hit or miss (mostly miss) but I've had a couple of good experiences there before. Recently witnessed a semi-hot chick getting gangbanged there.

Met a few really good looking ladies. One in particular was from ireland. The other I think Polish, however she did not have the documents to remain in the country and was gone. Several african american girls as well. I did run into that irish girl again. From what I see on the outside they did clean things up though. As far as 15th it has been reported if you can follow I believe their twitter feed and get there immediately things can get interesting. Mostly what I have been told there are a lot of d**k smokers lurking around, inside and in the parking lot, however also straight horn dogs that get very aggressive when a woman comes in usually accompanied by a male escort that agrees to have her lady drilled by various strangers. So yea I think it is the luck of the draw, however I have also heard that the organized parties can be good for activity.

A lot of them act like virgins who have never seen a woman nude before. Saw a "handler" bring in his girl last week and she was swarmed immediately in the room with the table. There had to have been 20 guys around her and one even started eating her ass. LOL! Crazy but I still like going there on occasion because you never know who will show up. Saw an amateur porn star there one time. I had a tranny try to grab my dick one time while I was watching a gangbang and I said "no thanks" LOL.
