Police came to deal with the scene but Trudeau did not calm down.
Trudeau fought vigorously and even damaged the cop cruiser with the same set of devastating shoes, according to police.
Trudeau, who is not a Laval resident, has been charged with assault-related crimes and was released Thursday.
Laval police tell Coolopolis that the man simply refused to pay his tab, which sparked the terpsichorean onslaught.
Another stripper from the same establishment later told Coolopolis that alcohol might have been involved and that the dancer may or may not have demanded $160 for eight dances, while the client was under the impression he owed $80.
Sticky strippernomics
An analyst of such affairs tells Coolopolis that hell often hath no fury like a stripper scorned.A doorman might have been expected to intervene but it's not always easy to do so because the incident undoubtedly happened in a private booth behind a curtain, according to my expert.
Such disagreements are a staple of strippernomics. Unlike other sex-trade relationships, which see the customer agree to a price and pay it in advance, such strip club encounters are routinely subject to money disputes as dancer and customer might not agree on the number of songs that played at the end.
The dancer might also ask for more than the official $10 per dance if she thinks that her dances went above and beyond the standard dance. Signs are often posted in such establishment explaining that dances cost $10, however.

Another contributing factor is that exotic dancers are not tied to any one nightclub as much as they once were and sometimes change workplace almost daily, leading them to have less need to maintain a good reputation at any one establishment.
As for women attacking people with high heels, incidents are surprisingly common and can lead to serious injury especially if the heel hits around the eye.
So next time you want to lay bad news on a woman in high heels think twice.
Lap-dancing has done to strip clubs what the all you can eat buffet has done to Chinese restaurants. Up until the early 90's or so, you could go to a club, pay a cover, sit down for a half an hour and sip your $9.00 beer while enjoying the show. The girls on the stage actually danced and usually had some amount of talent for it. Lap dances turned stripping from a "show" to some weird form of mild prostitution. Once it was decided that strippers had to agree to be fondled by any random dude in the audience for $10 bucks, the quality went sharply downhill.
ReplyDeleteI haven't walked into a strip club since 95 or so and that was in Tampa. I did not even have time to finish my $9.00 beer on that occasion before I was asked to leave after telling one of the girls that I was definitely not going to be buying any lap dances that evening. The girl that had been pestering me had a particularly nasty C-section scar that looked like it had been closed under battlefield conditions.
