Also saturday night we're at this bar, and this young (well young to us) girl comes up and starts talking to us, didn't think much of it, just thought she was being a nice local and generally curious about why we were visiting.
She told us she was singer/songwriter, born and raised in lexington, we're like neat. But by this point I was already starting to get annoyed, I'm a midwesterner, we don't chat with strangers. And then the grift started, she goes on to say she's full time musician but doesn't pay the bills and she also works at the spearmint rhino and performs music and dances and strips, we should stop buy and say we're with her and they'll let us in for free. We had introduced ourselves already, and she texted our first names to put us on the "list". Shen then showed video of backroom clubs, and there were many times I should've just said, we're not going, move on, but also, as a midwesterner, I'm too polite and let her finish her sales pitch. And sure enough, the floor manager was there and she waived him over and he's telling us how great club is, how classy it is, etc. Then she looks over and goes, I'm going to have one more than head to work, I think she was thinking we'd add her drinks to our tab, we just nodded and said have fun/good luck or something.
I do wonder if we ended up with some of her drinks on our tab, we never offered or indicated to bartender we would, but we also didn't analyze our tab which may have been a mistake......
We went to next bar, played NBA Jam on acrade machine and did not go to spearment rhino
