Dark Bilious Vapors

And Len was just musing (ranting) about Making Golf More Interesting: So, here ya go…In our own local news and environs:

Bikini golfer: We didn’t know homes were around course by Chuck Goudie (Daily Herald):

“I am an employee of Blackjacks Gentleman’s Club,” she wrote. “And I did attend the golf outing.”

Of course, the golf outing to which she referred was the golf outing. The one held a week ago today at Country Lakes Golf Club near Diehl Road and Route 59 in Naperville.

For those who may have been on the space shuttle the past week, the outing was sponsored by Blackjacks strip club near South Elgin. The entry fee was $375. That covered golf, food and some drinks.

The “caddies” were extra. They were auctioned off in the morning, before a 1 p.m. shotgun start. The caddies were actually strippers or “exotic dancers” as they prefer to be called. By either name, in their regular employment, they are paid to remove their clothing.

The golfers paid as much as $5,000 for just one stripper to accompany their foursomes during the 18-hole match.

Even before the first shot was hit, while golfers were driving carts to their starting tee boxes, some of the stripper/caddies had removed their tops in full view of residents, pedestrians and motorists and an WLS-TV, Channel 7 news crew that was taping in an undercover van.

But even as tops and bottoms were being shed, grinding lap dances were taking place in open golf carts and sex acts appeared to be under way in specially rigged tents, one of the women says the controversy was just a mistake.

“We were not aware that the course was surrounded by homes and such until we actually got on the course,” she claimed, asking that I not identify her for fear that she would lose her job.
