Lawyer Sues Strip Club for Making Him Spend 19,000 Dollars While Drunk


Fox News - An attorney who specializes in drunken-driving offenses is suing a Florida strip club, claiming it got him so drunk he spent almost $19,000 on his credit card, Courthousenews.com reports.  Mark S. Gold reportedly is suing the Gold Rush strip club in Miami-Dade County Court, saying he became "temporarily unconscious" during a drunken night at the club in November 2010 and racked up $18,930 in charges.  The lawsuit alleged that "Gold Rush knowingly and continuously served plaintiff alcoholic beverages to the extent that he was rendered intoxicated, partially or temporarily unconscious, and further to the extent that he had a complete loss of judgment, rational thought, or ability to enter into lawful contracts or agreements," according to the website. The allegations reportedly say that the club "knowingly caused plaintiff's irrational state of mind, continued to ply him with liquor in order to charge his credit card excessive amounts to the extent of $18,930."


Listen buddy, I don’t buy it and you shouldn’t be selling it.  

1.  Rule number one of the strip club. Leave your credit card at home. Coincidentally this is also rules two and three.  You don’t have that black card in your pocket, they stop feeding you boos, and the girls step grinding their lubed up parts on you, plain and simple.

4. Besides that though, you spent 19,000 dollars. It takes a while to blow through 19k, even in a strip club.  Like you might have been blacked out for an hour or so, but I can guarantee this was a 6-8 hour bender. At some point you came through and realized what was going on and decided “fuck it, I’ll deal with it later, now someone go find me an Asian I want to spice it up a little.” 

5. I feel like its an unwritten yet universally understood thing that once you set foot inside the threshold of a strip club, they aren’t going to stop sucking money out of you until its closing time or your card is declined.  The strip club is a gigantic war beign waged on your wallet.  If you're not willing to wage war on its behalf, you shouldn't be there in the first place.
