If you would have asked me earlier this week what city would most likely be the subject of an adult theater overview, I doubt I would have come up with Las Vegas. With the tragedy that unfolded there Sunday night, it was the furthest Vegas thought I had in my head.
Leave to it to frequent contributor The Executive Nomad to spin something positive about Vegas and have a lip-smacking a positive experience.
Take it away, EN!

Doc,
Doc,
Thoughts and prayers to everyone in Vegas.
About 4 weeks ago I found myself in Sin City. Arrived on Monday evening (Sept. 11) after dark and settled into to the hotel, got dinner, and then decided to check out a few places of this thing of ours.
Adult World
A word of advice: Don’t show up at a XXX bookstore and expect them to break a $100 bill. I didn’t realize that and 3 singles was all I had, but I found out soon enough. More on that in a moment ...
Adult World is located on Meade Ave west of the interstate just off Valley View. Its a very bare bones out of the way place with a theater and arcade. $2 to get in the arcade and $8 to enter the theater. I arrived about 10:30 and did I mention I only had a $100 bill? The guy behind the counter looked at me like I was a total idiot ... I had it coming. So I used 2 singles to get in the arcade. 5 dudes hanging out, all rough, booths with walls that don’t come to the floor. Place was dead so I was out.
Deja Vu on Industrial
So I had learned my lesson ... I swung by Station Casino to break my $100 into $20’s and proceeded to the Deja Vu location off Industrial. For those that don’t know ... this isn’t a terrible place. It has a large neat, well appointed retail store. There is a strip club off of one side, and a combination arcade/bookstore in the back. The strip club didn’t interest me, so I paid the $10 entrance and was buzzed into the back.
The seating in the theaters has been upgraded, nice new recliners in all three theater rooms. There was only 1 other guy hanging out, it was 11pm and a Monday night, so I settled in ... patience is a virtue I have read.
