Check out one of the comments from the article.  IMHO, people who rip off tourists in Vegas deserve to be driven out to the desert, shot and buried.

i work at one of these places and the busts are bull****! the customers (many married) go in to these places thinking with the wrong head and shell out this cash thinking that they're going to have sex. they wouldn't be pissed off at all if they got what they wanted from these girls (many barely 18-20). as far as i'm concerned those businesses do 3 things, stop married men from cheating on their wives, teach men a lesson about trying to obtain a prostitute in clark county and keeps young girls out of the strip clubs where they degrade themselves by getting naked in front of perverts. these reflexology studios are a small but effective form of prostitution control in my humble opinion.

Strippers would convince guys that if they spent $800 on a bottle of cheap champagne and went to a VIP room with them, they'd get laid. A few guys went to the cops claiming they were defrauded when they didn't get what they thought they had paid for, lol. I can't remember what the cops did, but that shit stopped after the story came out.

Re: Anyone else see...

I thought the same thing. How funny.
Don't ya think the SWAT team was a little overdressed for this? Those ladies sure look dangerous in their little black dresses and halter tops. Some of the cops wore black ski masks....likely so that the ladies didn't recognize them as some of their clients!

Random question related to cabbies.. are they doing the strip club switch thing again..  few years ago in asked to go to the Rhion - cabbie convinced me that Sapphire is better and he will front my cover charge..  Last year they stopped doing that...  was great way to get the cover waived  Are they back to that game?
