$28K bill at NY Stripclub

[xarir]

A US insurance executive is suing a New York strip club after being charged $28,000 for a night of erotic entertainment and expensive champagne. Mitchell Blaser claims he spent $2,000 at the Scores Club, but that he was overcharged by more than 10 times. Mr Blaser's lawyer said the club had assumed his client would be too embarrassed to pursue the matter.

A spokesman for the club said Mr Blaser had "partied like a rock star" and run up the huge bill. "If you want to live like [actor] Colin Farrell, you have to pay for it," Lonnie Hanover told the New York Post newspaper.

Mr Blaser, chief financial officer at Swiss Re, America, was billed $16,000 for five bottles of Clos de Mesnil champagne, $7,000 for table dances and strippers, $1,000 for food and drinks and a $4,000 tip to staff. The 53-year-old, who was accompanied on the night by two friends, claims staff at the club intimidated him into signing a bill for $8,615, and that his credit card was charged three times.

What a dumb guy.

Why should you settle for something less like the strippers?

You can spend the same amount on any hot SPs like sinful Selina, Sorel, Vanessa Valentine here for the years to cum....

Plus you can buy the top of the line champagne at LCBO with less dough, even with the price "gougling" by the Queens Park.

There is no substitute for real action.

BTW, $28K can buy you a decent bling bling and treats to "bribe" your not so enthusiastic mate for recreational sex....most of the time.

Poor bugger! my old grannie used to say, "when the wine's in, the wit's out!" i guess when you are a CFO of a large insurance company with a 'limitless' expense account, you can get a little careless with the company dough!! Wish I was a fly on the wall at their subsequent board meeting!

Hell, most of these CEOs have large enough expense accounts to cover that bill.

I bet he brought this forward because he's too embarassed to admit he did it.
I used to frequent strip clubs especially while on the road, no matter what you look like or who you are, you always have no problem finding ladies to talk to you. Good point I learned that no matter how much you spend, she ain't coming home with you!

But think about that bill for a second, when you get right down to it, it wouldn't take long to rack that up:

Private VIP lap dances: Used to be $20.00 a song, but say $40.00 now and they are not full length (like they NEVER play in a goddadavida lol). that's $600.00 per hour per lady x 3 guys $1800.00 per hour. IF he was really livin' it up he probably had more n 3 girls. But after just 4 hours he'd be up around $7200.00

Last time I looked, (Rick's Cabaret in New Orleans) I think it was $200.00 a bottle for champagne. A couple of cigars and you're well on your way to $10K without batting an eye.

If he had a whole bevy of beauties that $28K would be racked up in a matter of hours. Plus: The club managers are in no way responsible for the actions of a patron (in the sense that they will never turn someone away for spending TOO much money). I tell ya, I've never been in a club where the manager comes up to me and says "sorry Mr Tboy, you've spent $300.00, I am going to have to cut you off...." lol yeah RIGHT....

That's why I never go to the strip club.

You get more "bang" for the buck when you see the SP.

LOL LOL LOL

News items like this make my day.....what a knob.

When in the love of Gods green earth do you find jagoffs like this. I guess the terms restraint, fiscal accountability and audit do not mean anything to this budding MENSA member.

Well when the ladies come by and say "you vanna dance" your wits and restraint just go out the window.

 

[tboy]

I heard a rumor that this guy was in charge of accounting at Enron!! LOL
