MEMPHIS, TN (abc24.com) If you're looking for a good time in the boom boom room, it won't be happening at "Showgirls."

The Memphis strip club has been declared a public nuisance. It came at the request of the Shelby County District Attorney’s Office.

The Lamar Avenue strip club has been known as a haven for drugs and prostitution. The club had already been shut down by a judge's order and now it must remain closed at least through November 25, 2011.

In response to the previous post... Seriously? You think that shutting down a strip club is costing Memphians jobs. Memphis govt has plenty of reasons to be criticized, but causing the unemployment rate of pole dancers and bouncers to rise is not one of them.
