This is a dream scenario people:
For my birthday my wife asks if, while in Vegas to celebrate, I'd like to get a lap dance! After reading through the possibilities I decide on Club Paradise.
At 9:00 on Saturday night we cab there and are met at the door by a bouncer who wanted i.d.. 1/2 of the star is b/c my wife did not have hers and after speaking to the manager they let her in anyway (she's over 40). After paying the $60 admission for two we walked into the club and we were the ONLY ones there. Every girl was still fully clothed (not in lingerie, FULLY clothed) and sitting around. The was no music playing and we were told "we just opened at 6 PM".
WTF?
After being told at the front desk that "things usually get going around 11 PM" we left with a stamp on the wrist and a promise to let us in free later if we walked in vs. arriving by cab again
The other 1/2 star is really not for CP but for us. We went back to our hotel, had the bellman call Spearmint Rhino who picked us up in a stretch limo that had us to the club and seated, for FREE by 10:15.
It was packed full of at least 50 lovely ladies, the service was great and the birthday present was properly delivered - a couple of times.
Lesson learned. When anyone who you ask (kick back or not) says Club Paradise is dead, listen to them.
