Strippers Thinking Outside the Box

When I was reading How to Have Kick Ass Ideas, I came across this funny story about an “adult entertainment” establishment that came up with a simple solution for circumventing some local laws:

In Boise, Idaho, total nudity was banned in public unless for “serious artistic merit,” thus making strip clubs cover up. I’m sure this put a damper on the business of entertainment for a while. However, one strip club, Erotic City, managed to break the rules. They asked the simple but powerful question: “What if gentlemen coming to watch ladies taking all their clothes off had some serious artistic merit? In what circumstances could that happen?”

This question unlocked a cracking solution that kept them on the right side of the law. On entering said establishment, clients purchased a sketch pad and pencil for $15, and so “Art Nights” were born and on those nights G strings were removed with abandon. So once again self-expression blossomed. And never underestimate the creativity of gentlemen amorous of the female form.
