BuckwildNYC makes some good points. But you don't need not go in a group. I've gotten many strippers' numbers going there by myself -- for lunch or dinner and/or to watch the game. It goes back to being there with another reason.
People say the key is never to tip anybody but the server or bartender and never get lap dances, but that's not always what I've found. Its' OK to every now and then get
a lapdance, or maybe 2 if they're really good to you and offer you a deal. Only if you really feel like it and/or it's slow and you want to be
generous. Flirt with and tease the gals like mad, generally have a great time with them, and make yourself the man they
really want to get into the VIP room. I've had 'em offer to
give them away to "show me how much I'd like it."
Put yourself in the world of a stripper for a bit. Most of the time these gals are entertaining men who don't really do anything for them, and quite a few of their customers are chumps who they would never touch with a ten foot pole if they didn't stand to make a hundred per hour (including socializing with them) doing so. Being fun and a bit of a challenge is an effective combination.

One other thing: some people are not all that uptight about taking off their clothes and being overtly sexual. I've no problem dealing with such people.
