Lap Dances For Haiti? Come on pro athletes, give 'til it hurts
Feb 9, 2010, 10:45 AM EST
I apologize for this post not technically being sports related, but it’s for a good cause, so please bear with me. Marilyn’s on Monroe, a strip club in Toledo, Ohio, is raising money for Haitian earthquake relief through something it calls “Lap dances for Haiti.” The promotion isn’t exactly what you — or Pacman Jones — would expect; lap dancing is illegal in Ohio. But stripping isn’t, and Marilyn’s donated the $10 cover charges collected this past Saturday to ISOH/IMPACT, a relief organization based in suburban Perrysburg that provides food and clothing for Haiti. The haul: $1,000.
Bonus fact: The club’s general manager is named Kenny Soprano.
From the Toledo Blade: Two sister clubs in the Detroit area, the Landing Strip in Romulus and Subi’s Place in Southgate, have scheduled similar events this month with a goal of raising $5,000.
Come on, all you Browns and Bengals players. Time to make it rain for a earthquake relief.
