Today in Seattle Stripping News
Despite the fact that we're only two days into June, the month has not been kind to the local stripping industry or its clients. Last night, a group of guys in Magnolia hoping to get a private strip show got a lot more than they bargained for. They arranged for an exotic dancer to come and perform at their residence, but the dancer showed up with bodyguards and an unsexy mission: the guys were robbed at gunpoint. One of the men was pistol-whipped, the group was locked in a bathroom, and the dancer and her crew made their getaway in an Acura.
Maybe the Magnolia housemates should have just gone to a strip club. On the other hand, federal agents and local police raided three different strip clubs in Seattle earlier today as part of an ongoing racketeering investigation. The strip clubs, including Rick's on LCW and Sugar's in Shoreline, are owned by Frank Colacurcio Sr., the man at the center of Seattle's own Strippergate. There's no word on whether or not the raided strip clubs are open for business today, but as our friends on Magnolia learned the hard way...that's not necessarily a good reason to arrange a stripper housecall.
