Also, if he implemented rules that prevent loitering... or even a cover charge type of thing, it may have survived. lol… funny story… he probably should of stayed away from the nude scene and done some kind of bikini instead.

A buddy of mine owns a gun store with a shooting range that is right across the street from a topless club. He came up with a concept to hire topless dancers as the range officers for the gun range. He actually implemented the plan and the place was flooded with male customers. As this plan went forward a few issues arose: #1 - The male customers spent all their time talking to the girls and not actually buying anything. #2 - The city where he was located had specific zoning ordinances related to nudity so they shut it down. Did he make any revenue from the idea? No not really. But, he did create a memorable experience for his customer base.
