the ultimate strip club list

I haven't set foot in this place in 2-3 years. New ownership is sprucing the place up with new countertops, paint and a better layout with a smaller stage. Friday night had a $10 cover charge and about 12 dancers working. Stage dances was topless with bandaid pasties and few were inspired to go to the tipping seats. Hustle factor with the dancers was very low, they occasionaly circled the bar trolling for private dances. Most seemed happy to sit and drink with regulars or new found friends instead of dancing. 1 song for $20, 2 for $30 3 for $50 pricing doesn't make much sense, but the songs are played to almost there full length and not cut short. Beer was $3 and the crowd was blue-collar mix that matched the mix of dancers.

I tried 2 different girls with the 2 song for $30. The first was horrible with very little contact. I would have to csall it an air dance. I obviously made the wrong choice. Second round with a different girl was 1000 times better. No extras offered, just good ole grinding know how with a very seductive element.

This place is still a dive bar. It is in the middle of an industrial area of Hammond and by no means is a destination place nor would you ever bring business people there to impress them. But if you enjoy a seedy place with racy women who will get a little nasty then this place might be worth the 40 minute drive from Chicago.

Came here on an early Thursday night. All of the dancers here were subpar in looks and shape. The 10 dollar cover seemed ridiculous as absolutely nothing was happening inside the place which is located in an industrial area in Hammond. There were about 4 white dancers and 2 black dancers working during the time I was here. The only thing that kept this club from getting a much lower rating is the music selection. The dj here is the best dj I have ever encountered in any club. I guess this is cause I like hip-hop/rap music which is about every song that played here. That stupid Indiana law where the girls have to wear pasties angered me also. Nothing like Club O or Skybox where the girls go completely nude on stage.

Went by on a Monday night. Mostly large black dancers. Small stage in the center of the room. the place looked like it had been a neighborhood bar at one time. There were probably a dozen dancers and 5 patrons. The dances seemed to be a prettty standard price of $20 for one, two for $30 and four for $60. I was offered a half hour for $150 with the promise of a happy ending. I declined but did take up a couple of dancers on their offers for dances. You pay the bartender for the number of dances and then she gives the dancer a ticket. The dances were in a little booth with a chair. There was no door, but it didn't seem to inhibit the dancers. There was alot of griding, but not much touching otherwise. If you are there, I would suggest the 2 for $30 to check out the girl. You can always negotiate if you are interested in more dances. The girls will ask for a tip. I gave one a $5 tip after two dances and she gave me a lot of attitude about not being enough.

They are slowly remodeling this place and it is looking better every month. Now this is a very small club with room for about 10 at the bar and another 30 or so in booths and tables. Dances are in a back room with with separate areas that are open in the front. Dancers range from 3 to an occasional 8 depending on who is working. Milage varies by dancer from air dances to full, 2-way contact. New owner is trying to build bussiness. Years ago, this club was called Kapers or Capers, I don't remeber the correct spelling.
