We're waiting..... [/b]
Alright, I can??t believe I haven??t told you guys this story ?? I??ve probably alluded to it but never told the full version.
So while Smackette and I were awaiting all of our worldly possessions to be transported from DC to SF (July 03), we took a week long vacation in Mexico with my family. On our way to dinner one night in Puerto Nuevo, we noticed a new strip club had opened up by the house we stay at. After dinner, my sister and her husband and Mmackette and I all decided that we MUST check this out. We were pretty sure it was going to be the most disgusting place we??d ever been, but the curiosity got the best of us.
Apparently we had gotten there a little before the crowd arrives as there was only one other group in the joint, and no ladies working the crowd. Mind you, it was about 10pm on a Friday night. We ordered a pitcher of margaritas and waited for the show to start, but no one was on stage. A little bit of a broo-ha-ha started between the manager and the female bartender and she reluctantly went up on stage and stripped. In my little ability to speak spanish, she was upset and apparently had taken the bartender job so she could stop stripping. That and she was pissed that whomever was supposed to be there was late. For the record, she probably should have stopped stripping years ago.
So we had been there for about 45 minutes and a second Latina gets on stage. While slightly better looking than the first (which isn??t saying much), she was as disinterested as the first stripper. The place was a little more crowded now (we??re the only Americans), but still not much going on as far as the entertainment. At this point, my sister decided to take matters into her own hands and walks up to the manager and asks the manager if she can go on stage. There was bit of a language barrier at first, but she walked over to the stage and motioned that she wanted to get up there. He asked her to wait a second. At some point while my sister was negotiating with the manager, a small group of young 20-something American guys walked in, most clearly after a long day of surfing. They sat down at the table next to ours. Finally, the manager came back out with the rest of the male staff from the back, and then motioned that now was the appropriate time for her to get on stage.
So my sister gets up on stage and proceeds to strip for the crowd. To say that this was the most awkward moment in my life would not be an understatement. Between her on stage and the realization that she was all too comfortable on the pole for this to be her first time were enlightening moments for me. At first I didn??t think she would go through with it ?? dancing and spinning around are one thing, but would she really take her clothes off? Well, the short answer is yes. As soon as she started undoing her bathing suit top, I stopped watching. As Smackette reports, she was up there with nothing on but her panties for at least a song and a half, strutting her stuff around the stage.
After her show, she put her clothes back on, collected her money and came back over to our table. While we joked about what just happened, the guys at the table next to us asked my sister if they could buy her a drink. She said, ??I don??t know, you??ll have to ask my husband.? The guy had a puzzled look on his face and apologized saying he didn??t realize....
My brother in law, to his credit, said ??Don??t apologize to me ?? that??s her brother over there? motioning towards me. Now, I??ve seen a lot of faces in the Pantheon of Great Faces before, but if I could have a picture of the look on that guys face when I gave him the ??what??s up? nod, I would have the greatest avatar in the history of avatars. He went back to his table and tried to explain the situation to his buddies. They eventually bought us a pitcher of margaritas and joined us at our table for a while as we waited for the entertainment, which was sporadic at best for the rest of the night. We ended up surfing with them the next day where we told them about the rumors of the donkey bar in Tijuana. They set out for the Donkey Bar that evening and we??ve never heard from them since.
