Why Tampa has so many strip clubs
That's actually a REALLY good question...why DOES Tampa have so many strip clubs? The reason is quite simple, it's all thanks to one man. Now 81-years-old, Joe Redner in 1975 opened the Tampa area's first all-nude strip club and the rest is history! Back then, Joe read that nudity was covered under the First Amendment in a case in Jacksonville, so he decided to open up the city's first all-nude club, Tanga Lounge. Since then, everyone else just kind of followed suit and saw what a money maker these clubs were. Now, there are 40 clubs in and around the Tampa area and we can all thank Joe Redner, just don't shake his hand. More here
