Madame Oar's

This is the full bar portion of the Rocket Plaza entertainment complex (such as it is). This bar is topless and you must be 21 to get in. The cover price is not to bad, although they offer so many free ways in you really shouldn't have to pay (college students, vets, women, anyone on a motorcycle, etc all get in free). They do however, make it up with the drinks. Drinks tend to be pricey and are often watered down. The decor is typical... lots of mirrors, lots of lights, etc. The stage is center to the building and is kind of snug against the bar. There are often traffic jams in that area... although there is seating all the way around the stage. The music is random... it is dancers choice so you get what they want to dance to. Sometimes it can be... interesting.

One complaint I have, is that the private dance area is over at Tzers. So if you want a dance from a girl here you have to walk across the plaza to Tzers. This is ok in the summer, but this is Binghamton! Can you imagine having to walk across that plaza in windy, subarctic Binghamton... IN LINGERIE?!?!?

Speaking of the strippers, the women are never bad. However, they aren't always great either (in dancing ability, persona, or looks)... and as per NYS law they all have some sort of pasty on. I do have one problem with the girls though... lately, anytime my wife and I have gone, she has been pregnant. As soon as the girls see a pregnant women they all have to stop by to show us pictures of their kids. I have no idea where they are keeping these pictures! Its fun and all to swap kid stories... especially with a half naked lady, but... sometimes you just want to get away from the kids and you would think that a strip club is the place to do it.

All in all, its a classy club... fun will usually be had by all. It is definitely the only place one should go in the Greater Binghamton region.
