Strippers and today's economy question
My last visit to such an establishment was years ago in Florida. One of the "dancers" bore an almost identical resemblance to legendary 1950s pin up girl Bettie Page. I began to put quite a few dollar bills in her G-string and this motivated her to join me after her dance. I mentioned her resemblance to Page and she told me she had no idea who Bettie Page was. That ended our relationship!

They do get a little upset if you heat up the quarter w/ lighter before they “pick it up”.

Heard of a patron that tried using $2.00 bills in the g-strings and the establishment called the police to try and get the patron arrested for passing counterfit (funny/fake) money...Actually arrested and taken to the station house and finally a Sgt. made the patrolman release the patron.. Patrolman had to issue a formal written apolagy. ............................... drill sgt.

I bet she really liked you though. Wink

Reminds me of a story from a previous lifetime. A buddy of mine had a watch this moment during a trip to a local gentlemen's club. After soaking a quarter in a glass of ice for a while, he dropped it into a dancer's g-string. Her reaction was predictable as was our unceremonious ejection from the establishment. Ah, good times.


There was a club in the town where I went to college. We got tossed once when we brought Green Avenger squirt guns - the ones that hid in your palm. Another time we brought a buddy with sunglasses and a red tipped white cane as props and sat in the front row. His gaze was always about 10° away from where the girl was. Another ejection - Your friend is "bothering" the girls. Always had sufficient numbers so scuffles with the mill worker townies were avoided.

Inflation has brought the price down to 50 cents. Can’t afford a dollar anymore. Two quarters ought to cover it.

Don't know, haven't been to the shoe show for a long time

When I worked in Atlanta, myself and a few co-workers would go to the Pink Pony for lunch. They had $5.99 T Bones. Steak and a show.. This was in the 90's

Bettie Page has always been one of my dream girls. Not knowing who she was would have ended it for me also...

I believe it works the other way around. They do porn to get famous and make obscene amounts of money stripping. No pun intended.
That's akin to seeing Tom Brady's wealth and thinking it's a widespread phenomenon amongst people who play football. Much like how very few football/baseball/basketball players make it to the big dollars in the NFL/MLB/NBA (e.g. 0.00075% of highschool football players make the NFL), very few wayward girls get famous in porn and become headline strippers raking in obscene amounts of money. The super majority are used up and tossed aside for the next fresh face.

If all you've got is a credit card, and want to avoid taking a cash advance, most places will sell you some form of "stripper bucks."




"I've spoken of the shining city all my political life, but I don't know if I ever quite communicated what I saw when I said it. But in my mind it was a tall proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, wind-swept, God-blessed, and teeming with people of all kinds living in harmony and peace, a city with free ports that hummed with commerce and creativity, and if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors and the doors were open to anyone with the will and the heart to get here." -- Ronald Reagan, Farewell Address, Jan. 11, 1989
