Unionized SF strip club closing its curtains

[I AM NOT THAT GUY 5,715]

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) Nearly two decades after they made the nation gawk by forming its first unionized strip club, the dancers at San Francisco's Lusty Lady are hanging up their thongs.

The employee-owned, co-op club will close in two weeks because it can no longer afford its rent.

General manager Scott Farrell tells the San Francisco Chronicle (http://bit.ly/171ba9J ) that while the workers own the club, they don't own the North Beach building where rent was $5,500 a month in 2001 but now runs more than $16,000. That's far more than the dancers and their wads of ones can manage.

Eviction proceedings began against the club earlier this year when it fell behind on rent. The workers have agreed to vacate by Sept. 2, and the owner says he'll waive the back rent.

The rent has increased from $5500 to over $16000 in the past twenty years. That the workers were unionised does not appear on the face of the article to have caused the club to shut up shop.

You made the mis calculation of taking a anything I say serious

I would suspect it is more due to the lack of straight men in San Fran

You need to start making notations on your serious posts so we can differentiate.

The Condor Club where Carol Doda was dancing closed too. Public nudity is now banned in SF. The town is turning blue nose, and the parking is too limited and too expensive now for your casual lechers to make the trip anymore.
