Any port in a storm, any storm in a recession.
Nigerian president makes it rain, gets in trouble. Yahoo news fails for not actually making a reference!
I have this friend whose girlfriend used to work at a strip club (as a hostess she says, but frankly I couldn't care less) but anyway, I asked her if people actually make it rain in clubs, and I was surprised to find out that this is actually common practice. So much so that clubs actually have procedures for instances when patrons want to "spray currency". If a patron finds himself so meterologically inclined, he can of course indulge his torrential desires, but not before he ponies up a $100 "security fee" to the club. Apparently when this was a new phenomenon and people would toss dolla dolla bills all over the place, people would go apeshit trying to pick them up and, like average, ordinary people, manage to seriously injure themselves in the hubbub. So the fee is there to wake up the bouncers and make sure they're big and scary and no one picks the money up but the dancers.
Yes, after the security fee, all the currency you spray goes to the club too. That's just how it is. Must be a lot easier to do it in Zimbabwean Dollars. Of course now that they're on the rand these jokes are much less relevant.
