Ew.
Mrs. See-dub told me about this article and I just got around to finding it. It's a little dated at this point, about the last-minute rush to hire strippers for Superbowl parties, which doesn't make much sense to me because, you know, you're watching the game, right? Anyway, this part warranted discussion:
If there's any development that could cut into this business, it's the growing number of party hosts who want to do it themselves. Platinum Stages of Newport Beach, Calif., a company that sells portable stripper poles that can be installed in living rooms, says sales in the two weeks before the Super Bowl will account for 20% of its $2 million to $3 million in annual revenue. "The people using our products are your basic housewives and moms," says Kim Homuth, the company's director of operations. "But we do get some drunk guys on there, too. People send me pictures."Can you imagine, say, going over to your boss's house to watch the superbowl, and then seeing a newly bolted-down stripper pole and finding out that Mrs. Boss is "gonna put on a little halftime show for you"?
