I think it's odd how the "white" user John called his experience at vue reverse racism.

How are you calling others minorities by their skin color, when in fact you would be the minority in the situation.

Other races out number whites, so how can they even be called the minority?

If the club has more african-american, latino and asian people in it, why would you feel uncomfortable being white? Are you not comfortable in your own skin around other races? Is it mandatory for you to ALWAYS be in a majority white club? Can you not get over your own racism?

Quit being so up tight and just enjoy yourself where ever you go. People react to attitudes, and this guy must have portrayed a crappy attitude once he stepped in the door and didn't see as many white people as he wanted to. Get over yourself and realize that white people can't have everything to themselves. We're all in the same world and that will never change. AND NO I AM NOT A "MINORITY".

• Pros: Great location and music
• Cons: white people won't stick around when other races come into the club

Yet Another Example of a Dance Club in North Dallas Going Downhill

by john5 at Citysearch

This place wreaks of reverse racism. When it first opened, this place had a lot of potential. But like every other dance club in Dallas, it soon became less diverse and began catering to the minority crowd. And at every one of these types of clubs, the same general occurrences take place:

1. A female can't dance without getting grinded up on by 2 or more men.

2. Something will happen that will cause you to get kicked out and the minor incident, such as bumping into someone on accident while dancing, will be immediately resolved by you getting escorted out when the real reason is that you're of a different skin color.

3. The rules will apply to you but not to their bread and butter.

4. The place will eventually shut down (Examples - Maxwell's, Club X) or will become a place you tell your friends not to go to again (G Lounge).

I already recognized a guy from G Lounge hanging out at Sting where Club X once resided. That place will be the next bar that could have been great but failed to keep a diverse crowd and catered only to minorities. It seems that it happens at every dance club and that's a shame since there aren't too many places to dance anymore.

We've got two posters on here dancing around the subject. Let's call it what it is...reverse racism. To sum it up, if you're a white male, I suggest not going to Nine 7 Two and avoid the drama.

• Pros: It's a Dance Club in the Addison Area
• Cons: Reverse Racism

Double charged

by snaps55 at Citysearch

My girlfriends and I went to this club on a Saturday night. When we got in it seemed ok. We went and ordered our drinks and went and found a table. One of my girlfriends said that her drink was wrong and I offered to go and get her another one. When I got to the bar, the bartender, a girl, took back the bad drink and gave me a new one with no argument. All was going well for about 30 minutes but then the place got way too crowded so we left. My friend, who had left her tab open, forgot to close it out and remembered about an hour later when we were at another bar. We went back to pick up her card and her tab was $130. We were all in shock. When she asked to speak to a manager we were told to wait. I finally had to walk to the back and stand in the kitchen refusing to get out of the way til someone got a manager. 45 min later, one finally showed. I explained what had happened and he looked at the tab and said that the bartender had double rang us and had charged my friend for the drink that she got wrong even though we took it right back. He said he would change the tab and we could be on our way. We were getting in the car when we heard a girl yelling. It was the bartender with the manager trailing behind. She got in our faces using some choice words and asked what the problem was and threatened to call the cops. Then another girl came out, who seemed to have the same vocabulary as the first one, telling those two not to believe me because I was there last week disputing my tab and threw a pen in her face. That happened to be my first time there, not to mention my last. I explained to these people that my husband was an attorney and we were leaving and if they had any issues with that to call him and I gave them his card. Suddenly things seemed to change. We were apologized to and the tab was reduced. I have never been treated so disrespectfully and rudely in my entire life. I do not recommend this place to anyone!

• Pros: Nothing
• Cons: Everything
