Male Dancers Lead To Suspension

Joe Mayo said he was done having “Ultimate Males” shows at his historic Falls Club bar when he received a notice from Idaho State Police about the no-no. Shows featuring male dancers and striptease performances similar to Chippendales were held at the bar in November 2013 and November 2014. However, Mayo said a January article in The Press stating that The Grail, another local bar, had its liquor license revoked for hosting male dancers, among other violations, caught his attention. “When I saw the article and talked to my bar manager about it, I said, ‘I don’t think we should have these dancer guys back,” Mayo said. But by then, the damage was done - ISP and the bar later settled on a penalty that includes a month-long liquor license suspension through Sept. 8 and a $5,000 fine. The penalties stem from a violation of state code that prohibits such acts at a licensed premise/ Brian Walker , Coeur d’Alene Press. More here.
