I was Lillie Langtry in another life, and might have a crush on Calamity Jane.

Eat More Chikun!

Texas has its' own claim to fame in the brothel business, - The La Grange Chicken Ranch which was immortalized in Neon Lights- "Best Little Whorehouse in Texas".

Now, it looks like Delmont, Pennsylvania might be home to the next big thing on Broadway:



The Climax Gentlemen's Club


This article was taken from the AP:

You want pasties with that?
In a country that offers everything from drive-through burgers to drive-through church services, a strip club near Pittsburgh has something new for those who can't stop in for lap dances drive-through nudity. "When they leave, customers are falling out laughing," said Nick Fratangelo, owner of the Climax Gentleman's Club in Salem Township on an isolated stretch of U.S. Route 22, about 35 miles east of Pittsburgh. Motorists pull around to a window at the back of the club, show proof they are 18 or older and pay $5 per minute. Then they pull up a few feet to a second window and watch a nude dancer for the amount of time they paid for.

A 26-year-old Climax stripper who would identify herself only by her stage name, Barbie, said most customers pay for two to three minutes, but one man paid $100 for 20 minutes. "That can be tough," she said. "After a while, you run out of things to do." Climax opened the drive-through in April after employees bounced around ideas to attract customers, Fratangelo said. Bill Lyon, spokesman for the Free Speech Coalition, the Canoga Park, Calif.-based trade association for the adult entertainment industry, said Climax is likely the only strip club in the country to open a drive-through window. "One of the many problems faced by adult clubs are problems of generally people attempting to say they have 'secondary effects,"' Lyon said, such as strippers inflaming customers enough to provoke sexual attacks. "This is one way of really overcoming that," Lyon said. "With this, there's no way you're going to touch that girl. It's pretty innovative."


The drive-through has proven popular with couples particularly on Friday or Saturday nights and for carloads of women.
"We also get a lot of college kids who can't really afford the door, but they can afford the window," he said. "It's a novelty to women and they don't have to spend the $15 to $20 for admission to the club." Fratangelo said he can't yet say whether the window has been a financial boon for the club.

Nah, don't think this will ever make Broadway or even Larry King Live. This is just plain ole tacky, and like Mamma always said, "Ain't nothin uglier than homemade sin".

At least the Texas version had Dolly Parton and Burt Reynolds in it. We can't help it if we just ooze class!
