Everyone gets a gift bag from Dream Girl Direct, which sells clothes like this lady has on, perfect for fishing or high school reunions.
Velvet Dog manager Tino Rancone — one of Cleveland's most fearsome club promoters -- e-mailed us a couple days ago to be a "celebrity judge" at the club's first-ever "Party Your Pants Off Night" on February 9.
The name should say it all. At 11 p.m., contestants will "get down in their unmentionables" for a "Shake-Ur-Kahlua" competition. The amateur dancer who can shake, shimmy, and damn near shut down the swanky club for anti-nudity violations will score either a weekend stay at a downtown hotel or $100 cash.
Nobody goes home empty-handed, though. Everyone will get a gift bag from
Dream Girl Direct. And outfits from the exotic-lingerie distributor will be auctioned off to benefit the American Heart Association. At 10 p.m., Cleveland fashionista Priscilla will emcee a lingerie show. Clubhoppers can also dance with the Kahlua Girls while getting looped on free shots of the liqueur.
Then the judging begins. But hey, somebody's gotta do it, right?
