I know the Silver Dollar has not been the best reviewed SC but it has had (at least for me) some happy memories. It's always been a hit or miss club as every now and then you would get lucky and connect with a pleasant young lady.
I've not been by in the last few years so figured a return visit or two would be in order as I was in the neighborhood.
The first night was a Thurs. I think around 7:30. Got nailed for a cover charge and sat down. About a dozen customers and a few ladies in the back and that was it. I sat for 45 minutes and was not even approached to buy a drink. None of the girls worked the room and no one danced. I got up and left.
Second try was just because I couldn't believe how bad the first night was. I returned the next week around 8:00 on a Tuesday. No cover this time so I found a table and sat. Again about a dozen customers and maybe 4 girls all huddled under the TV by the big tables to the left of the bar. After waiting 30 minutes I walked up to the bar and bought a drink. During this whole time no one danced and none of the girls worked the room. Figured I'd leave and that's when a pretty lady from Montreal took my arm. Went for a dance and was floored when she asked me "what kind of dances do they do here ?" it was her first night working. I missed my opportunity when I told her I didn't know either. After a lack luster dance I headed out.
I assumed I was hitting the transition of shifts between the after work crowd and the evening group so I headed out last week at around 8:45 on a Tuesday and had a repeat of my first visit except for being offered a drink with 15 minutes of arriving..
I've got to say this seems to be an interesting business model. There must be a revenue stream here that I don't see.
Cheers
