Title: How in Hell do you spend $241,000 in a night at Scores? Post by: Gutboy Barrelhouse on March 08, 2006, 07:30:08 PM http://money.cnn.com/2006/03/08/news/newsmakers/scores.suit/index.htm?cnn=yes
$241,000 stripclub tab finally settled Infamous New York stripclub 'Scores' says a lawsuit stemming from the huge bill a former telecom exec racked up there has been resolved. March 8, 2006: 5:56 PM EST NEW YORK (CNN) - The lawsuit over a former communications executive's $241,000 tab racked up at Scores nightclub has been settled, an attorney for Scores said Wednesday. The terms of the settlement involving Scores, American Express, Savvis Inc., and former Savvis chief executive Robert McCormick are confidential, said Donald David, who represented Scores in the settlement talks. "All the parties involved -- except for Savvis -- have agreed to say they resolved the suit 'amicably,'" said David. "Savvis plans to send out a more extensive statement on their own." McCormick, of Clayton, Mo., resigned from Savvis (Research) Communications Corp. after an investigation into the $241,000, which was charged to his corporate American Express card after an alleged wild night at the Manhattan strip club on Oct. 22, 2003. Savvis and McCormick refused to pay. In court documents, McCormick said he spent up to $20,000 at Scores that night. American Express then sued Scores, Savvis and McCormick. The settlement was reached in the past few weeks, David said. American Express said only that all parties resolved their differences. -From CNN Assignment Editor Lauren Rivera Title: Re: How in Hell do you spend $241,000 in a night at Scores?

Post by: Samwise on March 08, 2006, 07:40:21 PM There was a bit in Maxim a while back about a similar case (it might have been this exact one, actually) that broke down exactly where all that money had gone. A sizable chunk of the money was the cost of renting a VIP room and a bunch of strippers for an entire evening, at a fairly exorbitant hourly rate. Pile on top of that a whole bunch of $15 drinks, and a lot of big tips to the strippers, and I guess it adds up pretty fast.
Still a nigh inconceivable amount of money. Title: Re: How in Hell do you spend $241,000 in a night at Scores? Post by: Ironwood on March 09, 2006, 01:26:11 AM And, I know it's unlikely, but we should probably bear in mind that there are single bottles that cost that much.
Heh. Though I'm of the opinion that you should give me money to research it as well. Title: Re: How in Hell do you spend $241,000 in a night at Scores? Post by: Wolf on March 09, 2006, 02:14:11 AM $240,000 for a lap dance by Jessica Alba, $960 to get very, very drunk on very, very expensive alchol and $40 for the taxi back home.
I'm looking for sponsors Title: Re: How in Hell do you spend $241,000 in a night at Scores? Post by: Ironwood on March 09, 2006, 02:24:50 AM Seriously, I think that's really underpriced and unrealistic of you. You'd barely get Roseanne Barr for that.

ps: that Barr lady is scary. She might brake my lap or something... Title: Re: How in Hell do you spend $241,000 in a night at Scores?

[EDIT] Rudy for 20k or Richard Simmons for 25k. Decisions... Decisions... Title: Re: How in Hell do you spend $241,000 in a night at Scores? Post by: Gutboy Barrelhouse on March 09, 2006, 07:08:06 AM I would go with:
Katie Harman Miss America 2002 $6,500 and add in, Kim Alexis Supermodel, TV Personality, Health & Fitness Expert and Author $7,500 And you get cash left for better booze Title: Re: How in Hell do you spend $241,000 in a night at Scores?
