Peppermint's provocative pitch

| | Comments (5) |

'All neighbors get in half price with flyer. All Pasadena City Councilmember's, Commissioners & Attorneys get in free.'
Members of the Pasadena City Council and city staff recently received a special invitation from an unlikely source.

Peppermint Gardens, the adult cabaret which opened at a former Shakey's Pizza on Foothill Boulevard and prompted a moratorium, hasty code revisions and a slew of lawsuits, apparently wants to say "no hard feelings" to City Hall by offering free entry.

As a former Planning Commissioner and newly elected Councilwoman, maybe Margaret McAustin will get me in as her date? (John will totally understand, right?)

The complete flyer -- just a little too hot for the 1950s-era values of our printing press -- is posted below the fold.

Yes, but do they have any video games? And will they take tokens as tips?

And they need "Boonga Boonga" as well...

As an engineer I'm perturbed that attorneys are to get in free. If there is any class of citizens in our fair community who have more than enough moolah to pay their own way, attorneys should be at the top of the list. Once again it's discrimination against the working class but then I suspect many more attorneys are regular customers anyway, so what the heck? Give them a break, they'll take anything, as long as it's free.

Won't someone think of the reporters?!

And I don't think "spanking" correctly describes the unique gameplay of Boon-ga Boon-ga.
