Strip club feud: Roaches, rats then arson

Hmmm, the article didn't show up in the link, so I don't have the full story, but I think I get the gist of it.
Something like this happened to me when I was working at a tattoo studio. A woman comes in to the studio on a slow day... she was the only customer for hours, and she was asking the price of tattoos. Visits the bathroom, then excuses herself to a nearby ATM to 'get money for the tattoo'. She doesn't return.
About 30 minutes later, nature calls and I have to go pee. I step into the bathroom and, lo and behold, there are two little white meeces running around the toilet, with their... ahem, 'presents' scattered everywhere. The men of the shop disposed of the little rascals. (which made me sad because I like all animals, even mice :rip: but I digress...)
So a few days after that, the Health Department shows up and does an inspection. I'm not sure why whoever went through all this trouble thought that it would work, but it didn't.
I guess the tattoo industry and the stripclub industry share a lot of qualities, and I definitely would not put it past the corrupt management of some places to try stuff like this. I think it just brings down the whole industry in my opinion.
link didnt work for me either. if you track down a working link.. repost it! it sounds like a pretty crazy story!
i posted that in industry insight awhile ago.
Here is another link that works:

@Harleigh Hellcat tattoos like strip clubs bring in lots of cash and have fierce competition so it's no wonder people want to protect their income.
If you're just the best you can be you wont have to resort to weird tactics.
At my club right now there are rival clubs 'stealing' our girls. They can have them it's not going to make them better than us in fact it makes us look benevolent for helping out. ;)
Holy crap... that's the club my friend worked at in ATL... had no clue it burned in 2007.
BUT I do know she received a letter from an attorney about Onyx. Apparently they are fighting a class action suit with some of the dancers over unfair/illegal hiring practices and not treating their dancers as independent contractors.
