Playboy Club in Downtown Jax?

[CrysG]

If the PB club opens can we start a betting pool as to when FBC TV commercial's comparing Jacksonville to Sodom and Gomorrah will start?

Can you picture the "Advertising" on bus shelters and bus's? I am laughing right now even though you can't see me!

The Baptists downtown will never allow this....I have heard they run downtown, don't know how true that is

Its not true. 

I am from First Baptist (although not recently) and there are a number of others on here that go to church there presently.  The anti city activism of the church is from an era two pastors ago.

Yeah, they are more focused on unmasking bloggers now. They've moved into the 21st century with their trying to control what happens in this city.

They do but some of there Members go to strip clubs now and cheat on there wives. Then on Wednesday and Sundays they are in church right along with the other cheating Husbands. And asking God to forgive them.

Playboy club?  ............ I thought they were loosing money and closing a lot of them for lack of revenue.

I'll bet it would spur growth and some other type developments downtown.

Heights Unknown

really?

Yep.  Adult Movie Stores, Porn Offices, Porn Film Industry, Bars and Night Clubs, Casinos, gaming and gambling casinos, sleezy hotels, prostitution, the Mafia owning or managing all of the above, etc.

Should I go on?

really heights?

we already have those things now.

The playboy clubs are incredibly upscale, and the types of people who go to them arent the types that frequent those types of business.

Thats like thinking that homeless means criminal, i think.

The center of porn production in the United States is Fort Lauderdale.   Miami is a much better place to get crossways with the mob, and neither of those towns have a Playboy Club.

A Playboy Club in Downtown Jacksonville would be Prime!

Thanks Stephen for stabbing me with the "homeless" comparison thing (which is in my field of expertise and backyard); you're very intelligent...good thinking on your part.  

I was just joking; I, or we don't know what kind of businesses, etc. would spring up from an upscale Playboy Club downtown, and, I don't know how clean it is or they are.  Could be linked in with the Mafia which would spur the things I mentioned, I said COULD, cause I don't really know.  If it happens (Playboy Club Downtown) we'll see won't we Stephen?

One more thing; didn't know that the Center of Porn production was in FTL and/or MIA.  I always thought (my opinion) these days porn could be produced in timuqua Arkansas or Bum frick Egypt if they have a bedroom (with all the technology now available).  Anyway, I know nothing about porn; seems you know more.  Thanks.

^SDare, where did you learn that the center of porn production was fort lauderdale?  I had not heard that before, and after some cursory research, was unable to find any information confirming that statement.

People are so fascinated with T & A...amazing (and very Freudian) how everything in society, thrills and ills, seems to revolve around reproductive organs.

Hey its 1972 here we want our lame, tacky, and oh so hip club back

I guess we inherently worship that which creates and sustains life.  And those bunny ears and cotton tails are oh so nice.   

[Captain Zissou]

Zissou you may be surprised to know it, but springfield had two mammoth porn studios in big time operation just four years ago.

Jacksonville has its fair share of porn producers already.  Theres an online college sex party site thats based here.  They do most of their casting out of Plush with the navy guys. 

That's really interesting.  As far as I can tell, it seems to be a pretty secretive industry, or at least discrete. As you said, they generate huge revenue, so it is very surprising to have one operate in your city without much public knowledge.  Cool info

This thread is about as real as my dream of a streetcar in every garage! Did some checking and found these interesting tidbits.

I'm so proud! I am living in the Porn Capital of the U.S., if not the world. Hell -- the universe. The San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles is the porn capital. It is a $12b business, employees approximately 6,000 people in over 200 companies creating some 7,000 titles in 2006 alone. Companies are spread throughout the valley: Van Nuys, Sherman Oaks, Canoga Park, Chattsworth and others.

You wouldn't believe the number one State on the consumption of on line porn....

Drumroll Please...

UTAH!

No kidding! From Polygamy to Porn, maybe that's not such a stretch.
