Cross Country Road Trip - 9/16 - 9/18

Mon 9/16 - Scottsdale, AZ

The night scene in Scottsdale is pretty good.  Its known for their barbie type girls.  You see a lot of girls with implants including cougars.  I would say Scottsdale is a pretty superficial town.  I went to a pool party there a year ago to show off my six pack and I swear it felt like a bodybuilding convention.  Having a good physique was just the norm. The town right next door is Tempe which has Arizona State University.  There are tons of hot college girls in the vicinity.

Electronic dance music is super popular there just like in Vegas.  Scottsdale is known as Molly capital of the world.  The clubs are in one general area however they were not all congregated on one street.  It was more spread out over a few blocks.

We were just staying there one night on a Monday night so obviously the venues were not that packed.  We went to Spanish Fly and then Hi-Fi.  My first impression was that guys did not approach.  We saw circles of guys and circles of girls separated.  However, Monday is industry night and its hard to tell whether this dynamic is true for the weekends and normal nights.

I had a chat with a sports bar manager and he told me stories of how easy it was to pull girls.  His pad was just a few blocks from his work place so logistics were easily handled.  He would get girls shots and use his status to pull girls at the end of the night.  I had asked him if it was better to work the social circle game there or do cold approach game.  He said cold approach is better and reputation spreads if people know you are sleeping around in social circles.  Some times I wonder.... can cold approach only get you so far?  Yes game is a criteria... but damn having status at certain places sure helps a lot.

Again, take this with a grain of salt.  It was the opinion of one dude and we were there for one night.  I would say on the west coast, second to Vegas and LA, Scottsdale probably has one of the best night scenes.

Tues 9/17 - Albuquerque, NM

I wouldn't say this city has anything super amazing.  Its one of those one night cities that we were passing by.  We did take the worlds longest tramway called Sandia Peak up to the mountains.  The scenery was pretty amazing up at the top.  It gets really cold, don't forget a jacket.

We ate at 66 Diner which I am guessing is named after route 66.  My friend opened the waitress and had a date with her after she got off work while me and my student went to go sarging.  Makes me wonder, since pickup isn't rampant in these smaller cities, I would presume it would be pretty easy to do pick up on these hired guns as most guys are likely to have no game (just a thought).

We went to this place called Imbibe which was decent for a Tuesday night.  There were a lot of ghetto people and smelly people but surprisingly there were a lot of hot college students aspiring to be doctors (hehe they all are until they fail).  I soon realized it was college night on Tuesdays.

I asked girls what was cool in Albuquerque and the only thing mentioned was "Breaking Bad", a crime drama TV show based there involving some guy who produces and sells meth.  This sure makes me want to leave Cali and move to Albuquerque! /sarcasm.

Oh, my friend didn't get the lay hahaha... LMRed.  The 18 year old waitress was an ex-drug addicted.  Big surprise.  I commend her for being able to support herself and having her own apartment at a young age.   My friend Go-PRO recorded his entire date.  He brings that thing around all the time, some times he wears that thing when hes fucking girls or when he opens sets during day game.  Next time you think everyone is watching you at the club, realize this... nobody gives a shit.  Most people are completely oblivious of their surroundings.

Wed 9/18 - Dallas, TX

We got to Dallas pretty late.   It was midnight before we got out to the venues.  The place we went to was Plush.  It was ranked 26 on top 100 club and bar magazine for 2013.

It was a piece of crap when we went in.  There were a total of 10 people and 2 girls.  Nobody was attractive.  Instead, we ended up going to a strip club called XTC huehuehue.  I guess Dallas is known for their strip clubs.  Many of these clubs are open 24 hours a day.  Dallas is kind of grungy and I think any time you are in neighborhoods like that, there tends to be less strippers that are White and Asian.  Instead, you get the big booty twerkalicious ones hahaha.  XTC served alcohol but the strippers were full on nude.  There were six poles around a gigantic room.  Since it was late, there were not a lot of strippers and most people were standing.  Its different than Sapphires in Vegas.  I paid 20 dollars for cover so I didn't want to get blown out of the venue and decided not to approach every stripper on site.  Instead, I mostly observed since it was only my 5-6th time at a strip club.

The girls go full on nude when dancing on the poles.  When performing lap dances, they go topless.  I always thought that for a lapdance, you couldn't really touch the girl.  My limiting belief was shattered when I saw a guy suck one of the girls nipples while she was dancing on the poles!  I guess you kind of have to gauge the girls comfort level and see if shes into you... that or you throw down a lot of money.

From a PU mentality, many guys guys start out refusing to pay for girls as it may appear beta.  Some times I have that old feeling creep up on me.  I told myself at first to not get any lap dances since it didn't require "game" and then I realized, hey... some people just want to have fun and not everything in life is about game.  I see guys throwing money at girls they didn't even like and were totally ugly!  On the main stage, a girl did a good job dancing and some dude just threw a stack of a hundred one dollar bills in the air like it was nothing.  He didn't even touch the girl or even look at her.

Later on, I thought to myself, why not.  To game a stripper without paying is possible, but its very hard and it usually takes more than one night.  You essentially have to game the whole venue, know the bouncers, know the bartenders, establish yourself as an insider and a non-customer since breaking out of the customer frame is very very hard.

I told myself why the heck not.  There weren't that many girls and there was only one hot one.  I talked to her earlier and I told her to come back and I would pay for a lap dance.  Long story short, we chatted, she goes to community college, I got a lap dance.  Got to suck her boobies however was not able to get a makeout.  She told me it was against the rules at the club and that she could get fired.

Not that I am an expert at strip club game, I admit to being a newb, I do have two friends who are expert at strip club game.  Both have been able to successfully close in the strip club but its inside the VIP rooms where nobody is watching.

• Be high energy.  Stippers are ADHD and have very short attention spans.  They are likely to be high and are stimulus junks.  You need to hold their attention.  
• If you made your mind to get a dance or a private dance, talk to them first for a bit.  Then tell them you are going to pay for it later, and that they need to work for it.   Get the most out of your money!  Tell them to be flirty and really sexual.
• Getting a strippers number is pretty easy, I got the number first time I attempted to number close one.  Same goes for my friends.

Here is all the advice I can give.  Again, I don't proclaim to be an expert in an area that I am not.  We tried day gaming at Dallas Galleria.  It was a piece of shit, no sets.

Texas has a lot of cops.  The guy turned off his radar prior and beamed us right as we were near giving us no time to react.  We hit the breaks right as my radar detector Passport Escort detected it... :(
