Orlando Strip Club Gives Seniors Flu Shots (more reform here than Congress)

[Are_grits_groceries]

Amid the shiny stripper poles, strobe-lit stages and scantily-clad performers at Rachel's Gentlemen's Club, you'll find Barbara and Sylvia, two old beauties who come for the free food and flu shots -- and stay for the ambiance.

Every year around this time, the flesh den in the small town of Cassleberry, north of Orlando, offers the shots in a setting way more exciting than a sterile doctor's office.

And the return of the complimentary lunch buffet has geriatrics coming in droves.

It's Rachel's sixth year of offering the shots, which includes the lunch buffet free for seniors and veterans, as well as all Casselberry residents and city employees.

If you're hoping to get the shot from a stripper in a sexy nurse outfit, no dice. The shots are administered by registered nurses in the club's VIP room.

"At this time with the rising cost of health care, it's a great way to give back to the community," said Rachel's food and beverage manager, Kevin Ruscitti. "We're proud to be a part of this community and it's a chance to give something back."

If you're thinking about getting a flu shot, but a trip to the doctor's office makes you squirm like a six year old, you might want to make the trip up to Cassleberry. The club is scheduled to give the flu shots again on Oct. 6 from 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Ah yes America. Where a strip club has more compassion than the "religious" people. They also offer a vital service that I don't see many other places doing except for Walgreens.

And we don't need health care reform. Just more strip clubs with doctors added.

excellent PR work for the strip-club!

I wonder if they could apply for grants to cover some of the cost?

2. They should.

Wouldn't that make a headline?

3. They should apply for stimulus money. nt
