Minnesota Strip Club Holds Teen Night
Owners Protesting New City Ordinance
Posted: 7:42 a.m. EDT July 24, 2002

NICOLLET, Minn. -- You might expect teen-age boys to be hanging out at the mall on a summer night. But in Nicollet, they went to the local strip club.

About 100 boys -- some as young as 16 -- paid $10 to get into the Mirage Pure Gold last night, even though the dancers took nothing off.

The club has been battling with city officials, who just passed an adult-use ordinance banning nude dancing. That ordinance says nothing about age requirements.

In the words of one of the club's owners, "If the city wants to play these games with us, we'll play." He says it's no different than a Hooters restaurant or a place with a bikini contest.

City officials promise not to hassle the club as long as it follows the ordinance. The owners are seeking an injunction to allow the strippers to resume stripping.

Put in a back-room indoor shooting range, and it'd be perfect! They'd need some adult supervision, of course. Where do I sign up?
