The unique thing about the hugger is that it doesn't have any regular employees or paychecks or schedule. The girls just show up whatever days they want and they keep everything the guys hand them (somehow this place makes enough from the door and the bar to stay in business). This makes for a very competitive environment and it shows. Girls that are ugly or unpleasant or not permissive have been weeded out because they can't make enough money. It also means that there are always tons of girls, even when the place is dead.
The cover is still only $3, but now pitchers are $12. Lap dances are only $10 per song, and considering what you can do it's a real bargain. Tips aren't expected for every girl on stage, but during the week expect girls to make the rounds afterward offering to put their boobs in your face for $1 (kind of a joke since many of the girls have no boobs, but the girls usually dance 3 or 4 songs so a $1 tip isn't unreasonable). You can tip them on stage of course, but don't expect much in return generally. You can also sometimes buy them a drink and they will sit next to you or on your lap and talk to you for about 10 minutes. The girls also come by to talk with you for free sometimes if the place isn't very busy.
There is only one stage, but the girls often double up and interact. The pole work is average at best, with some girls putting forth a great effort and some just standing there.
Now on to what really makes this place famous: the girls and the touching.
The girls are uniformly gorgeous. There are no old or fat girls, although some are on the anorexic side. They all have great faces, but many are lacking in the boob department. There were a few girls though with amazing breasts (fake I'm sure, but very well done). At any rate, these girls are MILES ahead of the girls at other Kokomo strip clubs. They also have good taste in clothing (erotic, but not skanky). And with only a couple exceptions, the girls are very nice and friendly. Some of them can get pushy (when the place is dead and they are desperate to make some money), but that happens at every club. Just politely blow them off.
Really though the main reason to go to this club is the lap dances. The girls aren't especially skilled at them, but it's basically a hands on free-for-all. Feel free to grab and squeeze boobs and butts, caress thighs, etc. It's encouraged, really. The only place I didn't go was the crotch, which I assume is frowned upon. My only complaint is that the girls don't really touch you, except of course with their butt. It's the opposite of every strip club I've ever been to. But you'll be so busy touching them you won't really mind.
Another strange thing is that at every other strip club I've been to, the youngest guys get the most attention. At the hugger it's the old guys that get all the attention, and there are a LOT of them on the weekend. I guess since the girls work purely on tips, they have to play it smart (most of them are regulars, and they spend a lot). If you go on a weekend, you can go the whole night without even talking to a girl. Stupid really, since I always bring plenty of money to burn. For your first visit I recommend going during the week. The girls aren't quite as hot (relative to the weekend super beauties), but you'll get plenty of attention (and a decent table). And since there are no schedules tons of girls always show up, unlike every other club in Kokomo. You'll have your pick believe me. The only downside is that they will be desperate for money, so expect to get asked about lap dances every 15 minutes. The girls are usually easy to get rid of though.
Overall, if you are anywhere near Kokomo this is a place you have to visit. Just understand that if you go on a weekend you'll have to be aggressive if you want attention (although you won't ever be bothered for tips or dances, so it can be very very cheap). If you want a dance, I recommend standing by the bar until a girl asks for a drink, then counter with your request. read more
