When you think about the city of Atlanta, you won’t go too far down a list of things to do and see before you get to the many famous strip clubs they have down there.
Welcome to Atlanta where the players play…
With the Super Bowl in town, a bunch of strippers wanted to indulge with those players and get paid handsomely with so much money in town. The problem is, the city of Atlanta was not ready for so many out of town strippers to show up, but when they did, a problem occurred.
Via The Athletic:
Progress had halted and the attractive 20-somethings who filled the waiting room were growing more agitated when the door inside the License and Permit Office finally swung open late Wednesday morning. Despite the city’s best efforts to plan ahead, the extra supplies the police department ordered to prepare for this week’s blitz did not arrive on time.
As a result, a city official announced that the office was out of printer ink. They were awaiting another shipment to arrive from the airport, but until then they couldn’t print the necessary licenses these women needed to work in town during Super Bowl week. They were welcome to wait it out, but there was a chance these dancers — all eager to pay the $250 fee for a permit and the right to earn thousands upon thousands more — would have to come back Thursday.
Everyone from vendors to dancers needs a permit to work this week. Upon hearing the news of the ink shortage, a handful of irritated women groaned and stood up at once. The chaos of the visitors coming and going, coupled with city employees trying to leave for their lunch break, created a large enough traffic jam in the overwhelmed parking lot that an elderly female worker stepped outside to direct traffic.
It should be noted that the city fingerprints each applicant and completes a background check, so if any of them have prostitution convictions, they cannot work in clubs this week.
The city does not track permit applications in real time and could not give an official number of how many women have already applied for licenses. It’s similarly impossible to predict how many more are coming. But one official working in the permit building estimated they had already handed out 150 licenses before running out of ink — with hundreds more dancers likely still on the way.

Strippers are expected to put in some long hours and make thousands in a short amount of time while doing it.
Magic City had 85 women on the floor Monday night. That number could reach 100 in various clubs across the city this weekend as the game nears. Do the math and that means well more than 1,000 dancers could be walking around Atlanta with thousands of dollars each this weekend.
Clubs are staying open later and women are planning on working longer. There is a rule that women can only work 27 hours a week, but nobody is abiding by that this week. And if the party is still going when it’s time to close, well, then the party is likely to continue.
