Jake's Exotic Dancers Pink Business in Coates Minnesota

Nice typographics! Nice typographies that’s what this has. It’s got nice style and nice pinkness. I didn’t go inside, if that’s what you’re up on, but I did find something lovely behind the building. Explore with me, if you will, the wonders of the exterior of the building that goes by the title “Jake’s Exotic Dancers.” And if you’re lucky, you might just get more than you bargained for (a pdf file!)

The dancers are “Totally Exotic!”

Exciting development! Since I started posting this post, I’ve discovered a wonderful PDF file that relates directly to Jake’s. Turns out that some time in 2002, the city of Coates, Minnesota (where Jake’s is located) tried to outlaw erotic dancing in their city limits (or something to that effect.) This PDF that I just came across is a several page, nicely typed appeal to the higher Minnesota courts asking that Jake’s first amendment rights be upheld so that the ladies could shake their booties forevermore.

That PDF is so importante!

Thing is, I don’t know what happened to that case, so I don’t know if you can even go in Jake’s anymore at all! The signs are sort of decrepit (as you can probably see), but there was a pretty fresh car parked behind the building. So who knows!

Take a peeker at the pictures here on in and look at that lovely couch! It’s probably still there if you want it.

Totally Exotic Dancers!

    This strip club was closed down because the City of Coates basically forced him to shut down. Right before he had to shut his doors, he painted the business bright pink as a sort of “screw you” to the city since this is right off of a busy highway, making it much more visible than it was before. He also paid for some fine the city imposed on him in hundreds of thousands of pennies. It has been re-opened as Jake’s Discount Liquors now.
