Economy puts pinch on Las Vegas strip clubs

LAS VEGAS—Las Vegas strip clubs are feeling the pinch of the economy and are offering discounts and freebies to keep customers coming through the doors.

Cheetah's offers two-for-one lap dances every afternoon, while Treasures provides a free buffet in the early evening, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.

The Can Can Room and Crazy Horse III have both halved the price of a lap dance, which usually costs $20 for three to four minutes at an all-nude club or two minutes at a topless joint.

Why would anyone even think about eating a buffet at a strip club?

I guess maybe Vegas miscalculated when it decided it had to go raunchier and let families take a flying leap....you can’t sever two gods.....

The Penthouse clubs in some locales offer buffets, and I was in the Tampa Bay location 2 years ago. I never even heard of “topless” joints until I came to America. In canada, they were all nude (at least in BC).

I find strip clubs to be morally repugnant.

Besides, when I'm in Vegas, I'm too busy with the hookers to waste my time at the strip clubs.

This question has plagued humanity since the dawn of man.

Reminds me of a joke I heard from Larry The Cable Guy.

He goes into a strip club and begins to give the strippers there some $100 monopoly money. To which they complain 'hey this is fake money' to which he replied 'well you are wearing fake boobies'.

Not to worry, those sleaze joints are still making a bundle, any time you can give a cab driver a $100.00 tip for bringing a cab full of men to your strip joint, times are not too bad.

The more strippers feel the pinch of the economy, the less they feel the pinch of their customers.

(Now that's some deep thinking, if I do say so myself. And I do.)
