If you're on a budget:
- Pregame. Either drink in the parking lot, or have a DD and drink at home where it's comfortable.
- Dont trick on these ****. They'll be on you quick, chat you up and try to get you to par them for a dance. Dont let their "affection" fool you, tell one you dont have enough $ for a dance and see how quick they bounce.
- Dont feel compelled to get a dance out of desperation, just sit back and watch the free show at the center of the club. Maybe throw a couple dollars at the good ones when they're dancing.
- $150 is plenty. Take out the cover (I'm assuming it's between $20-30), and you'll have, after extra drink money, like $100 for dances and tips what not. That's plenty for at least an hour.
- Dont touch unless they put your hand there.
FTR, I dont go to strip clubs, like, ever. Just a few times in my life. I'm in full agreement with the above sentiments that these places are overrated.
im not a strip club connoisseur by any stretch, but i think some of this advice is off the mark.
if youre gonna be sitting at the stage watching the girls dance, dont be a bum and not tip. dont want to tip? dont sit there. even if the girl is busted, throw her a pity dollar for the effort. im not saying you have to give your money away, but if you are being a cheap bum, all youre gonna get is dirty looks and attitude from the dancers.
you dont have to lie to these girls and tell them you dont have enough money for a dance. again, if you give off the impression that you are broke and/or cheap, all youre gonna end up with is more dirty looks and attitude (and you will NOT be approached by any of the better talent that is working that night, guaranteed). dont be pressured into buying a dance that you dont want, but you dont have to lie either. if a girl asks if you want a dance, and you aint feelin her, just be polite and tell her that you are doin OK right now and not ready for a dance. You will 100% get a better response than if you told her that you are broke.
as far as touching goes, to each their own. most of my strip club experience has been in vegas or LA, and i havent really seen touching to be an issue. just dont be a jackhole about it. dont be squeezin her **** or tryin to shove your finger up any of her holes or anything pervy like that. in my experience, ive found that most, if not all girls, are fairly comfortable with touching as long as security isnt watching you guys. if you do something shes not comfortable with, she will most likely just move your hands off and continue the lapdance. so if thats your thing, go ahead and grope (respectfully of course, most girls, stripper or not, dont particularly care to have their **** squeezed hard). she will let you know if its NOT ok. just use common sense. if she moves your hands off and you continue to go back to it, be prepared for her to get annoyed, cuss you out, cut the dance off short, and depending on how egregious your actions were, even get security to throw you out. if she dont stop you, then its probably fair game.
now i dont really go to strip clubs locally (in LA) cause I have a dont eat where you poop mentality. that being said, I have been to some of the local clubs in the past when i had friends in from out of town or something like that. the last time i went was probably around 3-4 yrs ago to the downtown LA Spearmint Rhino's location. Memory is a bit hazy, but I do remember seeing the local CBS news sports anchor Jim Hill who was sitting in a booth and making it rain (actually he would give a stack to one of the waitresses and make her walk to the stage to make it rain). Supposedly he is a strip club regular in the LA area and is always out and about. But I digress. That time I went cause my buddy's cousin was in town from Korea, and they dont have strip clubs there so he was intrigued about the concept. We were all piss drunk and decided, hell why not? At that time and that club, touching was not an issue at all. I ended up getting only once dance from a smokin hot chick and she was aggressive as hell (puttin my hands down and in so to speak). I aint really tryin to fingerblast strippers, not my thing, so I was the one who had to kinda pull away. All in all though, it was a decent club.
this may not apply today (i havent been in awhile) but as recently as a year or two back, CITY OF INDUSTRY IS A DIFFERENT BALLGAME.
i repeat.
CITY OF INDUSTRY IS A DIFFERENT BALLGAME
what i mean is, when it comes to sleaziness or what you can get away with COI >>>> anywhere else. The clubs HAVE to be paying off local law enforcement. There used to be a club in COI called Hawaii Theatre. They didnt even try to hide what was going on. A girl would approach you and ask for a dance or more. More? straight up propositon you. If you pay for VIP, bring a rubber (or she probably has one for you). Just to put it into perspective. If these strippers are actively trickin in the clubs, you think they really care bout you groping them during a dance? I'm not saying all COI strip clubs are like this, but there does seem to be an overall air of liberal rule bending if not outright breaking that goes on in that city.
I was just talkin to my buddy about it who said that him and his crew usually go to Paradise Showgirls now that Hawaii is closed down. He said at Paradise, its basically the same deal as Hawaii was. He said its $300 for VIP/full service. I know thats above your budget, but if you just tryin to pound out a stripper, the option is there. I asked about Deja Vu and my boy said that Deja Vu is $200 but its a bit more ghetto and the class of girls (depending on the night) can be a step below. But $200 is pretty close to your wheel house. If you are bit unsure, just be somewhat sly about it and ask. Like, "so what exactly do I get for $200 in the VIP room?" or something like that. I mean, these girls are all pro's. they know the drill. they know why you're there. Again, use common sense, be friendly and polite, and dont be an a-hole bout it. Most of all. Have fun.
