Greetings, Readers. I hope everyone had a great 4th. My travels recently took me last to Memphis, TN where I visited a usual stop of mine, The Paris Theater, and ventured in to Fantasy Zone for my very first time. Here are my reviews of both:
Paris Theater (Summer Ave)
Overall Rating: 3.5 out of 5 Stars
Pros / Basics:
- 2 small, but clean theaters. 1 playing straight porn, and one playing gay porn. $7 to enter one or $15 for both.
- Clientele is the usual mix of cruisers, older married guys, and the occasional couple.
- Staff is friendly, and selection of toys, movies and magazines are plentiful.
Cons:
- No Peeps or Video Arcade. Theaters only.
- ALL of the places in Memphis use this electronic card access system to access theaters peep booth (other locations) in lieu of just using cash and half the time....they do not work and you have to go back to the counter and have it replaced.
- After dark....Memphis is a scary place, so...heads up when leaving or returning to your car.
Fantasy Zone (N. Watkins St.)
Overall Rating: 4 out of 5 Stars
Pros / Basics:
- $5 to enter the theater area which includes a good size open big screen theater with about 4 rows of seats, and a room off to the front left for those who want privacy.
- Arcade / Peeps area with about 10 booths some with gloryholes, and almost all of them with "buddy Windows".
- Saw more couples here in one day than I have anywhere other than Horse Cave in KY. Aside from that...the clientele is the usual.
- Place is relatively clean.
- Staff is friendly (Guy at the counter let me in free because it was my first visit) and there is a great selection of toys, movies & magazines.
Cons:
- Peep Booth's are not private, and use that unreliable electronic card system. There is one booth I found that took cash.
- The location is sketchy to say the least. Its right next to a gated up liquor store in not a great part of Memphis. Again...use caution when going to and from your car.
So...in a nutshell....Memphis is always a fun trip, and though I do like the Paris....I will be giving Fantasy Zone a little more of my time the next pass through. I'm kicking myself it took me this long to get there.
Okay, folks. Time for me to go. I have my bags packed, and will be heading the Louisville the rest of this week. I'll let you know if there is any fun that I fall in to. Peace.
