Vegan Strip Club

[flootisboy65]

No meat but you'll still find plenty of crabs.

[swearwords77]

This is one of the best funnest strip clubs ever. Anyone who doesn't like this club, has a personally problem with it and that's all. I've worked their for 3 plus years. It's a goldmine!!!

[johngoforth77]

eh, I like my strippers meaty...

[Kaiser333333]

One of the best Strip Clubs in Portland!! Very hot girls, and they rotate on the stage quickly too which is nice (each girl does 1 song per stage).

Watch out if you bring a girlfriend with you the stripper may jump off the stage into her lap (most patrons think this is a good thing but your lady friend may not be ready) :P

I have never eaten here, strip club food is typically not that great as a general rule.

[radzuben]

I love the way they did this story. Normally everything on Fox 12 is pretty sanitary, but they really had fun with this.

[benelgermosen]

You won't find any meat, but you will see a lot of clams.

[missphillips92]

this place is amazing :)

best club in portland

[mediattackrecords]

good stuff stay vegan

[phatcrayonz]

Yo this is lovely!!! Ten thumbs up!

[PriscillaRelentless]

@TheVeganHere Or better yet, sign up for a shift yourself! Hope you like working as a prostitute for less than typical dancer earnings, since all the good clientelle have long since been chased off.

[TheVeganHere]

@PriscillaRelentless I don't think they would want me as a dancer. I am a male. :-)

[vandi135]

This is a really creative business idea!!!!

[SaganAppreciationSoc]

The world needs more vegan strippers.

[L2daO2daZ]

Haha, this is so fucked up but hilarious. And I loved the lame joke: "You won't find any meat here but you will find a lot of flesh".

[jahanemery]

HAHAHAHAHAHA

[gdgsdhgjyiyukh]

legal

[seizetheweakened]

what a joke

[deepakm]

omg 1:25 ROOOOOFl

[rif5150]

Great news clip! On my top 3 list. Visited the place and it was as good as I hoped it would be. Sinfully delicious in more ways than one.

[altha2008]

Wish I had the money to buy it, I would be my own best customer

[milofire]

That has got to be the best thing Fox has ever reported woo-hooo!

xoxo Peace xoxo

[HunterMann]

Okay so... free vegan food when you buy a drink. Many vegans are backing away from alcohol or at least know better than to drink any liquid while eating. I think it's mostly a goofy publicity stunt, and the strippers may be vegan, most of the clientele will just be the usual steak & potatoes truckers that go to other strip clubs. (yawn...next news story).

[vegansaladparty]

the place is cool.

it's clean.

the kitchen is run well.

johnny is a nice guy.

the dancers are hot.

strippers are strippers.

vegans are vegans.

why even TRY to change anything? it's perfect the way it is.

[PriscillaRelentless]

@vegansaladparty This place is NOT clean. It's widely known as one of the filthiest and most poorly run strip clubs in Portland. When I was last there the owner was trying to impose bullshit illegal fees on the dancers and trying to get the under 21 girls to pay it off in "trade." With so many decent strip clubs to work in in this town, this place is the last one I would recommend to dancers.

Also...most disgusting, dead, from-a-can vegan food you will ever taste.

[rail3945]

are you vegan?

[generatrix999]

Yes... vegan since 1980

[TheVeganHere]

@generatrix999 Wow, vegan since 1980. That's impressive. I've been vegan since Nov 28, 1988.

[elaveen]

@generatrix999 WOW

[dreambrew]

Since vegans don't eat meat does that mean their women don't get "eaten"?

[GypsyWytch13]

It's a shame I don't live in Oregon.  I have seven years of experience in pole-dancing and have been vegan for a year. This would be my dream job. HAHA

[broadjumper1]

It's a shame that 99% of men attending strip clubs could give a shit about veganism. Like his restaurant, this place will fold too...

[modestbuddhist]

on the pole not the plate, amen ; )

[anesthesiac]

Fox is such a bullshit news station.

[soodleb]

he looks like he needs a favour.

[SenorEuphoria]

Fucking hell. Looks like SOMEBODY is trying to boost sales by appealing to a demographic that usually consumes rabbit food in their spare time.

[VeganMisanthrope]

haha thats awesome, and I work at a strip club, wish I worked there lol

[pdxriseup]

I'm also vegan and do not support sexist crap. I miss Pirates Tavern :( Bad call Johnny.....what did your girlfriend think? Oh, that's right! You 2 aren't together anymore since Pirates Tavern changed into a strip club! You can't bring down one oppression for the other! LIBERATION FOR ALL!!!!!

[Galexia99]

Great comment. I too completely agree with you there. I'm a vegan,feminist but fell into some very scary times and have stripped and believe me this is not the way to sway men into a ethical way of eating by supporting the oppression of women. Unfortunately it will make men take veganism in a fly by night way and not seriously. As much as I support Pam Anderson and PETA, I believe the nude aspect of women makes people not take us seriously. When I was nude men were not saying your intelligent.

[NCCNeon]

Not all men feel a woman's IQ drops with her panties. You might not find too many of them in strip joints, but some men find intelligence in a woman to be SEXY.

The USA is almost alone in the world in the view that a woman is oppressed by her being nude. What a repressed society we have here.

I've known strippers who worked 2-3 days a week and doubled my 50+ hour paycheck. Where's the shame in that? It's an honest living, IMO and theirs. Oppression? Give me a BREAK!!

[MagaliDamnation]

We may not be 'oppressed', but we're disrespected and not taken seriously.

[PwnBucket]

I agree. And what is the deal with...if a woman happens to have a nice body, and she shows that off (not sluttily, just nicely shows it off) she's automatically a slut? I just don't get that.

I think I'd go to the vegan restaurant/strip club. It might be interesting.

[MagaliDamnation]

I don't agree with the word 'slut'. Women are free to do whatever they want. It's just annoying how men choose to use that way to disrespect them.

[Philhelm]

Well, let's be fair here. A lot of women don't seem to respect themselves. It's not all on the men.

[MagaliDamnation]

Men are the ones demanding for these kinds of things, and many women really want to do it, many are forced into it by several reasons, but when it finally comes down to it, it's men that choose to take it or leave it and respect women's bodies.

If I was a guy I would think if I would have liked that being my mom, my sister or my daughter... Not cool.

[PriscillaRelentless]

@MagaliDamnation I would rather they "respect my body" by politely enjoying the show and giving me money. And maybe throwing in a nice compliment.

Of course, it doesn't go so smoothly at Casa Diablo where girls are doing things on stage for a buck that most girls in most clubs would never even do in a private show.

[RussX5Z]

Exactly many women are confused. Its part of their genes.

[elaveen]

@PwnBucket omg thank you!!! just because we like to show our bodies doesnt make us slutty or dumb! its not about wanting attention, its having feminine power and embracing that

[elaveen]

@Galexia99 its not oppression, it was your choice to dance for money just like everyone else

its about having enough respect for yourself to not let that kind of stuff get to you and instead embrace your sexuality and femininity

[TheVeganicWitch]

Ummmmmmmmm....I'm vegan and I do not support this guy. He just called women meat...that's not particularly ethical, now is it. YUCK :(

Equality for all animals, human and non human!

[imaginaryfriendship]

the girls will only eat tube steak.

[toxicpimpsmack]

brilliant!!!!! im going

"keep the meat on the pole"  classic

[johnshipe]

He's not "diversifying." He's just trying to save his investment.

[TierraC44]

I wonder what the dancer eat??

what a phony for most dancers are drinkers, addicted to drugs and will eat like a pig

I know for I been there and now I a a true vegan

[humpdoy]

Tierra just because most dancers you knew were a certain way doesn't mean all of them are. The girl in the video says she has been vegetarian for 7 years. I have no reason to doubt her.

[TierraC44]

'vegetarian" not a vegan. 'vegetarain consumes dairy and some eat eggs

[shanesharp]

But unfortunately still haven't learn how to speak and use grammar. Oh, and if you actually watched the video, the dancer was saying how she had been vegitarian for the past seven, seven and a half years. STFU!!!!

[humpdoy]

Hey his sole purpose in life is to save as many animals as possible. Johnny can't be all that bad. Go VEGAN!!!!

[johnshipe]

Yes, he is all that bad.

[chris37uk]

WOMEN ARE NOT MEAT!

I am a vegan but I object to this disgusting sexist nonsense.

[nlouisea]

yeah the 'meat on a pole' part got me too. that guy is a do.uche. Can a person be an elitist, money grubbing, BO smelling, exploiting perv and pretend to be saving the world one naked bike ride or vegan strip club at the same time - YUP - its Portland. That guy would get his ass kicked anywhere else.

[shanesharp]

You would have a tough time kicking Johnnys ass. It also seems that your another one of the self righteous "STUBS" out pass judgement without visting the place, let alone trying the food, or talking to the person. Just another "symptom" of what's wrong with the world. Wow, people like you really make me HATE the human race.

[nlouisea]

Um no thanks on trying the food. By the way I have no problem with vegans OR strip clubs! I have a problem with people cashing in - doing anything for a buck and disguising it as a public service. Just like Oprah and Hooters. KEEP PORTLAND WIERD dude.

[imaginaryfriendship]

Actually, yes they are. Most are 100% others not so much.

[shanesharp]

WOMEN ARE MEAT.

MEN ARE MEAT.

THE HUMAN RACE IS MEAT.

I object to how quickly you self righteous vegan, vegitarian, holier than thou "Jimmy Swaggarts" pass judgement so quickly. Yet you still cry and whine when someone does it to you. Good grief. This all is, it just really reinforceing why I HATE human beings so much.
