StripperMobile grounded, but grinding strippers will return


TAMPA, Florida - StripperMobile, the strip club on wheels, will not return to the streets of Tampa Friday night as originally planned.

City officials put the brakes on the mobile advertisement for the Déjà Vu gentlemen's club because of registration issues with the truck's Nevada license plate.

During an extended conversation between the city's lawyers and the club's lawyers - described as "pleasant" by both sides - the topic of the suggestive dancing by the bikini-clad women on the back of the truck was also brought up.

"We discussed a compromise to alleviate the concerns expressed by some of the more conservative (people) in Tampa," said Luke Lirot, lawyer for Déjà Vu, located on E. Adamo Drive.

He said when the registration issue is corrected and StripperMobile returns to the streets, the club will respect the city's wishes for appropriate "coverage" on the women. They will also abstain from specific "performances" through certain areas of Tampa.

"We'll modify performances based on the presumption of the demographic in certain areas," Lirot said.

But Lirot also gave credit to the city for respecting the club's First Amendment right to operate StripperMobile. Déjà Vu agreed to limit the vehicle's operation to only bar districts after 10 p.m.

4. Florida in general

Lauderdale used to have a topless doughnut shop.

I never understood how that went out of business.

9. I love naked women and boobs as much as the next guy

But I don't want a naked person prepping, cooking or serving my food. Gross...

[av8rdave]

10. I just always felt sorry for the poor girl who had to work the fryer.

FWIW, I don't think anyone topless will be much risk to the food.

Now if they were all nekkid, I could see the concern...

2. The war between strippers and the authorities in Tampa is straight out of Tom and Jerry

You never know what's going to happen next
