Swinging Richards loses lawsuit

I wonder if this lawsuit will effect other strip clubs practices of not paying strippers and requiring a tip out from the dancer.

I heard about this lawsuit last week from a dancer that I ran into at another bar. He said the dancers are no longer required to tip out but it wasn't necessarily a good think cause lap dance number are down. The reason is because a customer is no longer allowed to pay the dancer in cash for the lap dance. The customer is now required to buy "dick bucks" in advance and must buy a minimum of $40. I have not been to confirm the new procedures. Anybody been recently that confirm the "dick bucks" requirement?

Was there a couple days ago. Not as many lap dances for sure. Didn’t have to buy minimum $40 dollars. But for each lap dance it cost $20 plus the house charges an additional $4. So a lap dance now costs $24. I had planned to go back last night but with the new rules, I decided against it. Also drinks went from $8,75 to $11.75 and the entrance isn’t free anymore and it’s not even $10 on an off night. It’s up to $15.
