    Default LMAO bad strip club location

    Ok, I've seem strip clubs located in some questionable areas over the years. I understand that often it is hard to get a club in a area due to zoning laws and the local protests.

    This week I saw one of the worst strip club locations ever.

    I have had the whole week off for summer vacation. In case any of you didn't know already, I live and work in Las Vegas Nevada. I was spending my time this week looking at real estate to buy. Since the land prices in Las Vegas valley have gone through the roof the past 2 years :o , I have been looking at homes and undeveloped land within a half hour's driving distance of Las Vegas to possibly invest in. Because people who work in Las Vegas and can't afford to buy a home or rent anymore have to live SOMEWHERE.

    This week I drove up to Pahrump, Nevada. Its a small town about 35 minutes outside of Las Vegas famous for its legal brothels. Former Las Vegas residents are starting to move out there to either retire or find a cheap place to live, since Las Vegas itself is no longer cheap. So in other words, Pahrump is in the middle of nowhere, has no shopping, no hospital, no nice restaurants and the most minimal of basic services.

    Anyways, right off the main roadway in Pahrump, and right across the street from its most expensive homes ($300K and up) is a brand new strip club. Its called Kingdom Gentleman's club, full nude, full alcohol, and the building is in the shape of giant castle.

    I was like WTF? A strip club in the middle of nowhere with two legal brothels right down the street? LMAO, talk about a bad place to put a gentleman's club. Plus the locals were busy protesting this gentleman's club, because it was literally across the street from the nicest, FAMILY oriented area in town, and unlike the brothels, their advertising was not as discreet.

    I see this one going out of business rather soon (unless it is converted to a brothel). Tourists who commute to Pahrump from Las Vegas are there for only one reason, the local brothels. If the men only wanted to see dancers, I'm sure they would not drive from Vegas to Pahrump for that, since Vegas itself is world famous for its strip clubs.

    I didn't have time to go inside this place and check it out though. I'll be back in Pahrump next week to look at some more properties, so maybe I can squeeze in a visit before it closes!

    Please feel free to share your other bad strip club locations with me. I'm in need of a good laugh!

    NawtyGirl, this is a golden opportunity to post a review of this new strip club "gem" since its not in the Clubs & Review section.

    I wonder if that place is really a brothel in disguise. Posing as a SC, they can probably get around that "no advertising" restriction the brothels have to abide by.

    I would absolutely love to post a review of this one up, but everytime I have been in the area it is located in, I have had no time to stop inside. Now I MUST get inside....

    The thing is, the brothels in this area DO advertise, but it is not as flashy as this local strip club. While the strip club's ads are pictures of women in tiny thong bikinis in compromising positions, the brothel's billboards consist of mostly words and much classier looking illustrations of women who are more modestly dressed. Also, since this strip club is on the main drag of the more family oriented side of town, I've heard alot of really innocent very young grade school children mistake it for a arcade/golfing/family fun center type of set up due to its castle-like building. Which leads to kiddies wanting to get in it all the time. Imagine a parent's horror when their 5 year old child asks to go to the strip club castle. LMAO

    And if it is a brothel in disguise, no doubt the township of Pahrump will find out pretty quickly and tax the hell out of them and make them relocate to another area. Prostitution is one of the town's main tax bases in town, paying about 40% or more of the thier tax revenue. Do you think the town tax officials are going to let that slide? Nope, this middle of nowhere town needs all the money it can get. So if it is a hidden brothel, it will most likely be forced to change its status from strip club to brothel by town officials.

    Also, there are so many churches in this town I'm surprised there ISN'T a church in its parking lot.

    From what I've seen in the Pahrump brothels...
    I bet they'll do okay, business-wise from all the hopeful men who had to run away from the brothels b/c they didn't want to sleep with the barkers that work there. Think about it, as an attractive woman, where would she most likely work? Brothel or strip club? Visit for yourself and find out...you'll be exiting quickly.

    Not that I'm against the brothels, I'm just telling the truth.

    I actually think this is the case. The reason is because you aren't allowed to legally get a new brothel license in Pahrump any longer. The way the laws are written down there, there aren't allowed to be any more brothel licenses. So for you to open up a new one, you have to buy an existing license from another brothel and that one would have to close down. Or, you can buy the brothel and it's license to be able to maintain the same club. Not too long ago, a brothel went up for sale and it went for millions of dollars. It's not because the location was so nice rather it was because the license to it was so valuable.

    Some clubs are exactly what you said they were Doc...fronts for brothels. In Nevada, that's legal, which is why a lot of brothels are doing that now. They can't open up a second location, but they can open up a club which is a front for their brothel. That's how Sherri's Cabaret works in Vegas. It used to be Rick's Talley Ho (which used to be an illegal champagne bottle club) and now it is a front for Sherri's Ranch in Pahrump. You go into the club which looks like a strip club. Then the dancers can actually legally solicit you for sex provided it takes place in their legal brothel in Pahrump. So you and the girl both take a limo ride to their brothel, have your fun, and return to the club. All legal, and on the books it's the same as any other gentlemen's club.

    I work across the street from sheri's (the strip club) at the C. Horse and there is never any taxis or cars there so i wonder how they even find customers to solicit to. That place is always, always dead.

    I'm definitely eager for an update on this one.

    BTW, investing in Pahrump sounds great. The Valley is friggin' exploding! Now if they'd do something about the traffic in Vegas...

    No truly weird stories for locales from me; I guess the closest would be the Nexus Gold Club in DC which bills itself as the best club in DC but is located in one of the shadiest parts of the city.

    DancerWealth, that explains alot. And as for Sherri's Ranch bringing strip club customers into the brothels, that would make sense too, and it would also explain why the club is so dead. The customers who know what they want would come in, solicit the girl, get in the limo together, and then go to the brothel really quick. Customers who just wanted quick easy sex wouldn't bother to hang around that "club" very long. This is a great if you are a prostitute, because of the safety factor, but very bad for girls that just want to be dancers and stay inside the club just lap dancing.

    Also, be glad there are very few brothels in Nevada, because soon they all will be trying this hook and bait tactic. If all the clubs had limo rides to local brothels, this would be the final nail in the coffin for Las Vegas strip clubs. And five years ago I would not have worried about the attractiveness of a brothel prostitute vs. Vegas dancer, but lately I have seen alot of dancers in Vegas who need to be keeping their clothes on. And alot of attractive dancers now turning to escorting to meet their bills on a regular basis.

    As for investing in Pahrump, at this point it could go either way. Right now, the Las Vegas valley is facing an artificial land shortage. I say artificial because there are miles of vacant land still left in the valley, unbuilt upon with no houses, the problem is that the land is either owned privately or government owned by the BLM. All it would take is for the BLM to suddenly release big lots of land in rapid succession for sale, rather than selling a paltry few thousand acres every year, and housing prices would suddenly drop. If that happens, land in Pahrump will not be worth much, at least until the entire Vegas Valley is completely built out, from mountainside to mountainside. BUT if the BLM continues with its drag-ass land release policies (they own about 80% of the land in the state of Nevada) home prices will continue to skyrocket due to the land shortage and the natural supply and demand of the growing Vegas population. People who are priced out of the market in the Vegas Valley will either be forced to rent or if they want to buy, commute to areas like Pahrump, or simply forget Vegas and move out of state. (And alot of people will be priced out, because wages in Vegas can't support starter homes at $250K).

    As for living in Pahrump right now, it would not be my ideal place to live (due to lack of amenities and services), but it would probably be a great place to start a slumlord empire.

    I can think of one...

    One is Hooters... it is the same spot which has been previously inhabit-ed by, at least to my memory, 3 other strip clubs..... and this is in the 3 years I have been dancing. The location doesn't seem bad on the outside as it is located in Surfers Paradise along the Gold Coast highway... near shops, restaurants and resorts/apartments... here is the clincher... it is NOT located where all the nightclubs and other strip clubs are currently.

    It is only a 5 minute walk "down the road" from the 'heart of Surfers Paradise' (Cavill Avenue and Orchid Avenue)... yet it still doesn't get the "traffic". Bad location.

    This location has an interesting history too. It used to be Ricks Tally Ho and it was essentially a scam joint. It's VERY small inside. I ream REALLY SMALL. it's 2 stories. A bar and small stage downstairs and a few rooms upstairs. The rooms were like sleezy bedrooms with no doors, only curtains. The way the scam worked, a "mark" customer would walk in and there would be a few scantily clad dancers sitting at the bar. When you found one you'd like to talk to, she would take you upstairs. When in the bedroom, she would elude to the fact that she would have sex for money. She just tells the customer that he needs to buy some non-alcoholic champagne for them to get the party started. The bottle costs anywhere from $100 on up. She pours and does some full nude dancing privately. She stops after a while or until the bottle is nearly empty and asks the customer to buy another. If he does, she leaves and returns with another bottle and dances a little more. The entire time eluding to sex even more. I've even heard of them taking pants off of the customer leaving them in their underwear. She keeps selling the non-alcoholic wine at super high prices until the customer complains and asks when he was going to have sex. That's when the bouncers show up and kick the guy out. He's not going to go complain to the cops because he'll go to jail for admitting he was soliciting a prostitute and who is he going to complain to in the club??? It was a perfect scam and they did it for a long time from what I gather. They probably got raided a lot, but who cares, right? They were eventually bought by Sherri's to be a front for their brothel a few years ago

    I passed by Sherri's a lot on my way to work at Treasures and wondered why, if there were always about literally 2 cars in the lot, how the place managed to stay open. I guess that explains it!

    Same here, I drove by Tally Ho/Sherri's alot on my way to work at the various Vegas clubs. I can definately notice a decrease of cars in their parking lot since it was bought by Sherri's. Before I actually used to see the parking lot jammed with cars, and nowadays if they are "busy" there is like 2 cars and a couple of limos parked outside waiting to taking customers to the offsite brothel.

    And GoldCoastGirl, last year I found the worst Hooters location ever. It is at the Sunset Station Casino in Henderson (the city next door to Las Vegas). It is literally right next door to the casino's arcade and movie theater, so basically where all the little kids congregate in the casino. ???
