Frog's Sports Club in East Carondelet (IL) is likely to lose their liquor license after officers observed them allegedly hosting nude spaghetti wrestling.
Ray Curtis, co-owner of the bar, asked Mayor Herb Simmons not to revoke the bar's liquor license. "Everybody deserves a second chance," Curtis said. "That's what we're asking for."Sounds like a good weekend in Vegas.Village Attorney David Schneidewind asked for the village to revoke the bar's liquor license for violating local ordinances and state statutes regarding illegal gambling, nudity and underage drinking.
During the hearing, Curtis said he had no idea that the nude entertainment was going on at his bar.Shocked, I say, shocked!"It's my fault for not being there more often," Curtis said. "The fliers said spaghetti wrestling, not nude spaghetti wrestling. Somebody could have come to me with this information before."
According to the police report, it was bar co-owner Tom Williams who contracted St. Louis-based Unleashed Entertainment for $100, and agreed that the wrestlers would be able to keep their tips...Heh. So the officer was there back in May too.East Carondelet Police officer Tim Bedard testified during the hearing that the spaghetti wrestling contests had been held at least on two occasions: Once at the end of May and again on Saturday.
Bedard said that while he was undercover he took photographs of the women during one of the wrestling contests, and was approached by Williams to e-mail Williams a copy of the photographs.That doesn't sound very "undercover".
Former female employees of Frog's bar testified that Williams encouraged bartenders to flash patrons and pay out poker games. Both women said an underage boy had been served and had been to the bar on several occasions, including the wrestling matches.The "boy" was 19 years old and apparently used a fake ID.
So just who are the victims here? You have adults standing around drinking while other adults frolic around in spaghetti. And somewhere along the line a boob pops out, and he starts taking pictures for the local prosecutor. And just how many people were shot, raped, or robbed while police resources were spent trying to enforce the morality code among consenting adults on private property?

Freedom is slavery. Property of the state cannot have the right to consent. Big Brother is watching you.
Which one of these lines in not from a popular novel written in 1948? Do any of them not apply to this situation?
