The trick to getting in free at the strip's hottest night clubs is finding a good club promoter. As a local you will come in contact with multiple promoters. They have the power to hand you that little white slip, that piece of paper lets the cashier know your entry is complimentary. There are ways to earn a comp slip. Girls can get in free any night of the week. Text your promoter and get on his list. When you get to the club, see one of the guys with a clipboard. Tell him the name of your promoter, and he will hand you a comp slip to hand to the cashier.
The problems remains of how to meet a promoter. Promoters get paid for bringing guests to the club. You will find them roaming the casinos, the pool areas during the summer and outside of the club at night. As a guy, you can get a comp slip as well. Arrive at the club with a ratio of two girls per guy and you can earn a comp slip from a promoter.
