Teacher is a stripper but no one knows?


I know the movie is just that; a movie. So allowances for realism have to be made (like the conspicuous absence of assistant coaches in the last game). But much effort was made to show how small and insular this town is; everyone knows everyone else. So how in the HELL would NO ONE know that Ms. Davis was a stripper? C'mon; someone would know, and as she said, it would cost her her job.

Here's to the health of Cardinal Puff.

I guess all the other coaches rolled with Kilmer after he left except for the ones in the press box because Lance had on headphones. And as for Ms. Davis maybe not many people go to any parent-teacher conference meetings.

Can't buy liquor past 9 in Texas, can't buy beer past 12 in Texas but bars can be open as late as they want, provided no booze is served past 2

That's some strict liquors right there... Colorado can sell both until midnight. Bars close at 2.

I use to live in South Carolina and it's worse there. Liquor stores close at 7pm. Some counties can't sell alcohol on Sunday. Until 2006 they didn't allow free pour and had to use those tiny shooters to make drinks.

Jesus Christ. I thought Jokelahoma (where I unfortunately reside) was bad.

Clubs and bars close at 2 (there are a few all night places but they can't serve booze period.)

Grocery stores/gas stations can sell low point/church beer (3.2%) 7 days a week, but not before 6AM and not after 2AM. No wine/liquor sales.

Liquor stores can't open till 10AM and close at 9PM. They sell liquor, wine, and beer. It's high point 6-8%, but can't be chilled. Also your typical domestics (Bud, Miller, Coors, etc) aren't sold whatsoever in high point here.

At the merging of the Oklahoma Territory and Indian Territory into inception of statehood (1907) there was a local prohibition law put into place for 21 years thanks to our first Governor Charles Haskell. However there was a "dispensary" system put into place which let people get a prescription from their doctor. That system fell into shambles by the 1930s due to everyone just getting bootleg liquor. Even after the 21st Amendment passed there was still heavy prohibition on a state level.

Finally by 1959 Oklahoma had repealed its state law on the sale of liquor, there are still some dry counties, just as there are in Texas and many other states with completely warped grip on reality.


1959.... Kennedy and Nixon were prepping to duke it out for the Presidency when Oklahoma allowed the sale of liquor. And even then it didn't permit liquor by the drink. That provision in the law didn't change until Ronald Regan was threatening the USSR from the White House in his fancy Stetson hat in 1984.

It's also illegal for high schoolers to drink but that didn't stop them from being served did it?

What does this say to you?






I mean, say what you like about the tenets of National Socialism, Dude, at least its an ethos.

that pact that the friends wouldn't tell anyone is a bunch of BS. The whole town would know the next morning

I was BLOWN AWAY when the hot sex ed teacher later turned out to be a stripper.

Well no, actually I wasn't. I saw that coming right up 5th Avenue so to speak.

reply

Guessing because in a small town like that, the men don't exactly go around talking about who they saw at the strip club. I'm sure people know but no one talks about it. If a woman know, she wouldn't exactly want to say her husband was at the strip club and saw someone.

reply

And she tried to conceal the fact that she was a teacher. ... by playing a teacher in her stripping script?

reply

Teacher's do that more than people realize; they just have to do a great job hiding it. For instance there was that woman who was fired for doing porn in the Czech Republic last year. Her students ratted her out more or less. She did a 40 minute hardcore porn and claimed she was drugged (she wasn't.) She got fired and blacklisted.

In RL, the same would happen even if stripping isn't as bad as porn. I'm sure even if the boys kept their traps shut someone would find out and she would be done. The parents would raise hell for sure.

for personal safety Reasons most Dancers work at least 40 miles from their home city

If there are closer clubs, most patrons won't travel Nearly that far... But HS Kids with a fake ID almost have to...
- like some one points out in another thread, if the Strip Club is too close to West Canaan, the Owner wouldn't let them in, not because he knows they're minors, but because the Game meant too much

combine the two and she's relatively safe from exposure (pardon the pun)... on top of that any one who 'outs' her as a stripper is by that action admitting their own presence at the club...

and the Adults who brag up hitting the Strip Club likely wouldn't care that a Stripper works at school, and the Moral Guardian who would be outraged by a Teacher who strips would need to explain why they were at the club to witness it.
- her only Danger is in specifically HER students picking HER club, on HER nights
