Packed House Greets New Rick’s Cabaret near Dallas/Fort Worth Airport for Three-Day Preview Opening

Business Wire
A preview opening of the newest Rick’s Cabaret just
outside the busy Dallas/Fort Worth Airport over the weekend
drew standing-room only crowds of party-goers and well-wishers. The
club is located midway between Dallas and Fort Worth, at the south
exit of the world’s seventh busiest airports.
More than 100 beautiful entertainers were on hand for the
opening parties Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights at the club,
which is the newest addition to Rick’s Cabaret International,
Inc. (NASDAQ:RICK), the publicly traded company that includes
22 upscale gentlemen’s clubs nationwide.
The new Rick’s Cabaret D/FW started its life as a
bring-your-own-bottle establishment after several corporate
neighbors, politicians and airport officials filed complaints that
have delayed until June a hearing on issuance of a license by the
Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC).
“We had a fabulous preview opening weekend and it looks as if
this club will be one of our big winners because of its convenience
to our patrons, and all the publicity it has received from the
controversy over issuing the liquor license,” said Eric
Langan, President and CEO of Rick’s Cabaret International,
Inc., who was on hand for the launch.
Mr. Langan said he was confident that the TABC will eventually
decide that the club poses no danger and will issue a liquor
license. “Meanwhile, our guests seemed very comfortable bringing
their own supply and we simply provided them with glasses, ice,
soda water and other mixers. The main attraction is the girls and
there were more than 100 of them on hand to help us begin our
life.”
Mr. Langan said Rick’s Cabaret D/FW would be open throughout the
pro football championship week festivities, as will the company’s
other establishments in the Metroplex: Rick’s Cabaret/Fort Worth;
Cabaret North and Cabaret East in Fort Worth; Club Onyx in Dallas
catering to African-American gentlemen; plus XTC Cabaret in Dallas
and XTC Cabaret in Fort Worth.
