Will Sacramento be next?

I know this image is a little risque, but then again, so is this story.

Inflation has hit the Las Vegas strip clubs, as there are now confirmed reports that the doorman at some of the clubs are paying $100 a customer to cab and limo drivers who drop off their passengers for a night of adult entertainment.

According to an article in today's Nevada Appeal, the long standing secret agreement between club owners was to pay $50 per customer. However, with the decline in LV tourism, the value of each paying customer has increased, and now club owners are battling it out between themselves for each and every customer. The net result is a windfall for chauffeurs.

Unfortunately, inflation hasn't hit Sacramento, as the standard rate our drivers receive (or at least what they tell me!) is only $5 per customer. Hopefully, we will be next!
