Posted on: Nightclub nightmare costs couple a bundle

Things are way out of hand, back in the days were there were only a hand ful of clubs like ra, 54, etc.. things were not so insane. Rain kinda started everything when you had to buy a vip area + bottle invidually. after that things here are out of control.

1st of all vegas clubs use a stone age approach to dealing with people. Lets pack as many women in the club, and make guys wait to get in, because guys are willing to pay a lot more to get in. Basically women are being used as carrots while guys are the donkey.

Look EVERYONE hates hidden surcharges, everyone even tries to avoid ATM fees by using certain machines. When you are quoted a price and a tip price. You shouldnt be expecting to pay more. The only people who will disagree with me are people probally working in the night club industry, who love to solicit tips.

All these employees want there hand in the cookie jar. Ive worked in the bar/restuarant industry for 10 years and have never solicted a tip. sometimes if i want to get into a club, ill ask what it takes, but its an instant turn off when someone comes asking for money.
