12.05.08 SAFECO FIELD TO GET SEXY NEIGHBOR
The city of Seattle has approved a request to open a Deja Vu strip club across the street from Safeco Field, despite the Mariners’ attempt to block it. High five!
[The club] would be just 400 feet away from Safeco Field — the same distance as home plate is from the center field wall.
The Mariners asked the city to reconsider, calling for further interpretation of the city code passed last year which bans strip clubs from within 800 feet of community centers, parks and schools…
The Mariners also argued that some open areas adjacent to the stadium are included on a list of “neighborhood parks, open space, recreational features and public-private open spaces” in the Downtown Planning Study Final Environmental Impact Statement.
Here’s a list of things adjacent to Safeco Field: Qwest Field, the Pyramid Brewery, train tracks, parking lots, industrial wharves, and various signs of urban blight. It’s precisely the kind of neighborhood where strip clubs are ALWAYS located. Thematically, Deja Vu’s got more of a right to be there than Safeco.

Good to see the ex-Sonics groupies will finally be working again.
And no matter how low-rent the Deja Vu is, there will be less sucking there than at Safeco.
Too bad they don’t have Richie SEXson any more, amiright?
/waiting for high five
I bet the Japanese businessmen-owners of the Mariners put up a pretty strong argument against a strip club.
At least irate Mariners fans know who they can take their rage out on.
Haven’t you posted this story before?
What’s the over/under for how long it takes for a Mariners player to get arrested outside the Deja Vu?
is this a response to the “any and all girls kissing each other will be asked to leave the premises” rule?

At least there will be scoring in Seattle now.
I thought most Mariners players were prostitutes anyway.
Ironically, the owner of the club just recently moved it from Oklahoma City.
will you be able to hear the annoying train noises inside the club? That is usually the most exciting part of a Mariner’s game.
Mmmm….Pyramid Brewery.

Don’t you mean Shawn Kemp’s bastard children? Or is that redundant?
