Rob Abner blogs: “Another time a Hasidic Jew came into the club and asked me if there was a private room. I told him there were private rooms for lap dances. He said, no, he needed a private room to pray. I told him I didn’t really have a room where he could do that. He looked around and asked if I minded if he prayed in the corner real quick. I said sure, why not. So he went in the corner of the club, while a dancer stood nude on stage, faced the corner and began to read from his little prayer book and daven.”
Many of these Hasidim sanctified the name of God in these clubs with their generous tips and courtly demeanor. “I must say the Hasidic Jews spent plenty of money and never haggled with me over the price of a lap dance. I was happy to have their business and I never, in all my years, had to break up a fight started by a Hasidic Jew or throw a Hasidic Jew out of the club for selling coke in the bathroom.”
