I'm just going to set the stage for this place so you best understand the type of establishment The Country Club is.... 

It's about noon on a Friday and I am more hung over than I have been in a while.  Inside is an over the top New Orleans style drag show dancing and weaving in and out of brunching diners. Outside, the pool is LIT. Flocks of friends starting their afternoon by taking it easy with a hard drink. Me on the other hand, I can barely lift my head or open my eyes. I made my way to the bathroom for a puke and rally and am met by a tan man in a speedo. We made eye contact, greet each other with a hello, and then he bends over to snort the pill he just openly just crushed on the counter top. That's when I decided it was probably a good idea to roll it on home for a nap.

I heard during my slumber that one of the misfit toys in my group of friends proceeded to black out, take his clothes off, and jump in the pool...not once but twice.  According to my sister, she "loved the Country Club because it's the only bar I've ever been to that someone gets completely nude and security just politely asks them to put their clothes back on..."

In his defense, this pool used to be a nude pool so I can see where the confusion came in as the drink consumption increased.
