Nudie joint covers up sign with RNC in Kansas City
Source: KCTV
A highly visible strip club in downtown has covered up its come-hither sign with top Republicans in town considering Kansas City as host for the 2016 political convention.
The 2016 Republican National Convention's 13-member site selection committee arrived on Wednesday and will stay in town until Friday.
Temptations, which is on Grand Boulevard just a block south of the Sprint Center, has covered up its sign advertising its "totally nude" offering. The business had looked some years back at relocating but rezoning restrictions meant it had to stay put.
Officials won't confirm that the cover-up is related to the RNC visit but workers have cut weeds, repaired signs and picked up trash in the downtown areas. Welcoming billboards have gone up around the city. The gentleman club's "barely legal" banner is also hidden away from prying eyes.
Some residents are baffled by the cover up.

(6,699 posts)Kansas City can be an unbearable place to be from June onward. My apologies to Kansas, but I've heard horror stories of NEA conventions back there in July, probably 15 years ago, and it was a monster, miserable experience from all accounts. I'd LOVE for the gop to get that experience. Just keep the hell away from the west coast. We have enough crazies out here already.

(10,533 posts)do they have better strip clubs in Denver, Cleveland, or Dallas? Ironically the Repuke MO Legislature forced the strip clubs to close early and banned total nudity
My bad...but they are only 8 minutes (3 miles) apart; just across the Kansas River. Gave, what I thought was a friend I met in Japan while recoperating from my wounds from a land mine, $75 to buy me a camera to send home. Thought he was from Kansas City, Kansas, and he was actually from Kansas City, Missouri. Twice I've made that mistake now.
Still....hotter than hell in the dead of summer; and probably worse today than it was 15 years ago.

The convention slogan: Conservative pervs do it better in Kansas City.

(963 posts)they've already been to that "small business" which employs many locals. No need to cover up. Move along with business as usual.

(28,017 posts)KC did it at the request of the GOP, but not for the reason you think! They are simply protecting their members from photographs of them entering and exiting the club. They all know where it is, and I can guarantee you a good number of them have a line on where the whores are, too. Remember, hotel pay per view screenings of porn always rise when one of two groups are in town - the conservative baptists, or the GOP.

(91,005 posts)If they think that will keep the GOP riff-raff away, they're wrong. Like bees to honey, like flies to a barnyard -- the committee will be there looking for lap-dances.
Take lotsa selfies, guys!
Kansas City, famous forever
