I hear ya. Shit, I used to look forward to the strip club Christmas parties more than my own friends' Christmas parties.

LOL I didn't even think of that, shit is different now. I guess bachelor parties are gone too, eh? Or significantly modified LOL.

Posted on their Instagram last night that they were at full (reduced) capacity. Anyone got a sitrep?

Step 3 Permitted to operate as a strip club in alignment with restaurant and performance restrictions "performance restrictions"... there's the question

Keep in mind, I don't know anything, OK? Consider that Phil owns the building, the owner of Nuden owns the building, I don't know about the Playmate. Those guys, if they sold - and I thought this when a listing came out last year for Barefax, especially Phil - would take a huge loss. I'm guessing they'd have to be offered a freaking TON over what the property is actually worth, and the potential of the club to make. There's no point. The only profit is to ride out this current shit and wait till the clubs come back.

We have enough evidence now that it's private social gatherings where people get infected. You get this virus from family, friends, and especially co-workers. "Strip clubs" just makes for a big juicy headline.

I'm almost certain the owner(s) of NuDen owns the entire building. Not a question of rent, just keeping the property working.

NuDen Instagram: Bare with us as we continue to adapt to the times. All adult entertainment clubs are forced to close across Ontario. We are remaining open, welcome to Ottawa’s only Sport Grill & Adult Arcade! We will have professional Aerial shows Thursday through to Saturday. Stay tuned! So it looks like they're getting creative / rebranding / pulling an end run. See how it works out.

IDK man, I'm looking at a thread right below this one hoping against logic that a club stays open, and in this one fellas are complaining about an extra four bucks cover. ~\😀/~

My understanding is that some years ago the bylaw governing adult licenses was amended so that no new ones would ever be assigned. Only the current ones, in the hands of the current owners (and family) would exist, and when they went out of business strip clubs would eventually disappear.

So IMO the real question is, are the girls making money under these circumstances? If the boys adjust and the business goes back to the way it was 30 years ago, the business stays alive. If the girls don't make money, all you have is one expensive bar.

Ah well, probably better I didn't know about that at the time.

Before anyone had CRs. Yes I'm that old LOL.

God damn, was afraid so. It's like the 80s again.

Rules of engagement?
