The Boston Licensing Board today ordered the Glass Slipper to shut down for two days as penance for the horizontal lap dance a police detective found a dancer giving a customer early on Oct. 27.
The club, one of two strip clubs left in the Combat Zone, gets to pick when it wants to shut down.
At a hearing on Tuesday, a club manager said he was as surprised as anyone to discover the customer was lying on a couch pawing the dancer as she ground on top of him, in direct violation of a city ordinances against customer/dancer contact in general and butt grabbing in particular. The customer paid $300 for the performance in one of the club's third-floor private-party rooms; the dancer lost her job over the extra work.
Like the job UHub is doing? Consider a contribution. Thanks!

Not that I'm opposed to lap dances, but I call b.s. on that.
I'm shocked, shocked!

The detective who testified on Tuesday mentioned one regulation against patron/dancer contact and another one that specifically mentioned the buttocks, Adult Entertainment regulation 1C, I believe he said it was.
it's not totally separate...

but it is specifically mentioned.
adult entertainment regulation 1(c) reads:
interestingly, the next regulation, 1(d) forbids you from wearing a merkin:
Thanks for the clarification

So I guess that's why the people who work at Dick's in Quincy Market never wear the hats they make for patrons :-).
Wow. I hope that the Herald picks up this headline.

They should be shut down for charging so much for a lap session. Maybe if the city had better tittie bars, they'd get more convension business.
