    Some clubs have measures to ensure bills like that get paid. In addition to holding your license/CC, they'll snap a photo of you holding them before you leave. Prevents "Oh shit gee i dunno my wallet got stolen..."

    Hockey players love strip clubs, particularly Chez Paris in Montreal. They can afford them. I know of at least two NHL players who married peelers. I'm sure there's more.

    Somewhere in my 20s or early 30s, I was walking down a street somewhere in Manhattan with this woman (who I believe I was outkicking my coverage with at the time), and out of a building came this short, pudgy troll of a man, balding, not groomed particularly well. ... with a young Czech-like model on his arm.

    Kind of like if you saw Danny DeVito without knowing who is, with a young Paulina Porizkova (and sorry if it is a bit disrespectful to Ric Ocasek's memory to make her the example when I could have just as easily gone for at least 10 other supermodels, despite this thread having started with them).

    The woman I was with looked at me, and I looked at her, and I stupidly said, "What the hell?" like I was that naive.

    And she just shook her head and did the universal gesture for money by rubbing her thumb against her index and middle fingers.

    That moment stuck with me.

    NHLers aren't the only ones. When I was working in junior hockey, our bus company would use our bus, which was wrapped and we just used on a per game basis, to pick up pro teams at the airport and occasionally deliver them to men's entertainment establishments before dropping them at their hotel.

    One day I got a call from a woman who saw our bus outside one of these establishments on a Friday night and wanted to know why our players were patronizing this kind of establishment when most were underage. I told her we don't own our bus, she still wanted to know why our players were there; I told her they weren't; "How do you know that?" "We had a home game that night, we lost." "Are you sure about that?" "Quite." Click.

    Did you consider that you might have lost the game because all of your players were at a strip club? Hmmm? Hmmm?

    That's a different issue. They would have driven there, not used the bus!

    There's no way it was, unless it's really changed since I was last there in college. You could see the stretch marks and roast beef.

    Are Nixon's and McGee's wives hot? Or just anything above toothless
    crackwhore is outkicking your coverage for those guys? My buddy used
    to say Nixon looked like a modern day Ghandi if Ghandi was a junkie.
