Lawsuit of the Day: When Strippers Attack!
Several tipsters nominated this story for ATL’s Lawsuit of the Day.
A businessman claims in a lawsuit that he was injured when a stripper giving him a lap dance swiveled and smacked him in the face with the heel of her shoe.Stephen Chang, a securities trader, said in court papers filed Friday that he was at the Hot Lap Dance Club near Madison Square Garden and was getting a paid lap dance when the accident occurred early Nov. 2, 2007.
According to the lawsuit, as the dancer swung around, the heel of her shoe hit him in the eye, causing him ”serious injuries.”
At least the heel just him in the eye. We agree with one tipster who said:
You have to love the name of the club, too - “Hot Lap Dance Club”. Really? They couldn’t come up with anything better?
We surfed on over to the Hot Lap Dance Club website:
Our dancers are all ”hand picked” and are among the most beautiful women in New York City with killer bodies.
Killer bodies, eh? We wonder if Mr. Chang will use this in his case as proof of intent.

FIRST!
Assumption of the risk when you fetishize women in 4-inch Lucite heels, my friend.
Oh great, no more stilletos at these clubs because of liability. This police state is gonna kill me.
is that a large mouth bass on her back?
"Killer bodies, eh? We wonder if Mr. Chang will use this in his case as proof of intent."
This Kashmir dude is good.
"At least the heel just him in the eye"
what?
what remedies is he seeking? I wonder if a "private" settelment can be worked out......Just throwin the idea out there.
To be fair, some guys - and I'm not naming names Eliot Spitzer - like it rough.
Does the name of this place throw anyone else off or is my sleep deprivation? I keep reading it as "Hot Lap, Dance Club" I think they should hypheante it to "Hot Lap-Dance Club"
Check out the prices in the FAQ... I knew New York was expensive but 1000 to sleep with a 8, $300 to get a lap dance from a 8 (that first blond is a 10, but the rest are 7s) and it's BYOB... damn
What an @sshole

agreed. and i think that is a bass on her back.
Guys - high school - eyes - heel - lapdance - all the time - no big deal.
At least they have a "special rear entrance."
chang is king?
name 2 people who got shot in the head in a theater: (a) Abraham Lincoln and (b) the guy sitting in front of Pee Wee Herman.
Sounds like a case for Eliot's new firm - and at least the damages aren't as hairy as those suffered by sleeping passengers on American airline
The plaintiff in this suit may win the battle but lose the war.
PS:
Any comments on assumption of the risk?
AHAHAHAHAHAHA
I'm trying, but I can't seem to summon any sympathy for the dude. Who would he be suing if it had been his wife/girlfriend giving him a lap dance? An ACCIDENT is an ACCIDENT, dude. (And, if he actually has said wife or girlfriend, I would not be surprised if part of the "serious injuries" caused to his eye came about AFTER the lap dance incident)
Also, peeps, Kash is a woman.
I always assume the risk of getting kicked in the face with stripper's heels when I go to Hot Lap Dance Clubs.
I wonder what move she was doing when this happened?
1:41 & 1:58 - yeah, that's a bass (or something close). looks like she's got a cowboy hat tucked under her arm too. looks like a 'red-neck' woman wearing daisy dukes.
hmmm....i have the sudden urge to go fishin'
Largemouth bass or a smallmouth bass on the stripper's backside?
I'm going to go with largemouth ass, I mean bass.
3:43PM
Trying to keep him from ejaculating.
wgwag?
3:09 - You're clearly not married and probably have no girlfriend. There is no such thing as lapdances from girlfriends or wives. Silly lad.
BTW, are you sure the picture on her back isn't a walleye? Either way, I wouldn't mind hooking it and reeling it in.
3:09 - thanks for the info on Kash, and for missing that joke.
Kash would totally kick SEN's ass in a topless jello pudding fight.
Well, 4:55, you are correct that I am not married, and I have no girlfriend. But then again, I'm a heterosexual woman.
Sounds like you are dating the wrong women, because I have definitely given lap dances to (very appreciative) boyfriends in the past.
5:45, I talk to humor coach who tell me you make very funny joke.
NOT!
3:09 = 7:09 = Kristen = Ashley Alexandra DiPietro = Ashley Alexandra Dupre = Ashley Youmans
ZOMG I'VE BEEN FOUND OUT!!!!11!!!1one!!
trout are sexy
It only makes sense that it would be a bass right on top of a stripper's ass. Complete with the large mouth for, well, you know.
