If you're a woman over 35 and sport stilettos ...
... then you need to check out Flamenco in northeast Fresno.
The restaurant has a Singles Night every Wednesday, 6-8 p.m., that targets people who are 35 or older, single, divorced or widowed and tired of the usual dating scene.
The place has speed dating, but here's the part that caught the eye of a couple of friends: Ladies get 10% off drinks for each inch of heel. That's right, if you can squeeze your tootsies into, say, Victoria Beckham-like 5-inch stilettos, you get your drinks half off.
So, if anyone out there has 10-inch heels ...
Comments:
well, i'm almost 30 and i own over 30 pair of stillettos so this seems to be the place for me.
although i'm extremely hesitant about heading north to go out.

Gosh, MsJoey, if you're brave enough to wear stiletto heels, you can tackle anything.

okay i'm totally laughing out loud right now because i'm actually almost 35! why i wrote that i was almost 30 is beyond me.
age has NEVER been an issue for me but apparently theres something sub-conscious going on in my big head!
and yes, until i broke my toe last October i didnt own 1 pair of flat shoes. it sucked to have to rehab myself back into stillettos but i did it and i'm finally wearing my precious darlings once again.

MsJoey can bring her either heels or her scrg skates at milano on the fulton mall and get 50% off anytime she wants!
and she doesn't even have to go north!

Dammit, four more years. I'm in drink no-woman's land: too old to have men buying me drinks, too young to get the really good drink specials.

Now there's an intelligent response if I've ever heard one.
And Hmac next Fresno Filmworks I'll buy you a drink. I loved how they had wine there.

They did? How did I miss that? I saw popcorn but no wine.

I think it was off to the right of the entrance.

If you're 35 and wear high heels you're now considered a pornstar?
I knew I had it going on!!!! Bow-chica-bow-wow.

Yay! Me too! I'm a pornstar!
But like MsJoey, I'm not inclined to trek north just for a discount on drinks I can't afford WITH the discount.
Interesting marketing ploy. It's one way to make sure ya get the hoochies to come out of the woodwork and congregate in one place.
(And I'm not saying there's anything wrong with being a hoochie mama, if that's what you want to be.)

YaY Kendall!!! Thanks for the offer! you know i'd much rather be at the Milano than anywhere north!
and as for porn stars and hoochies, i'll wear my badge proudly and most likely walk away drunk, with all the money i brought still safe and snug in my pocket.
cuz most guys are easy.

Heather, one is NEVER too old to have a man buy her a drink. One is simply mature enough to point out that a drink gets little more than a flashing smile and a nod of thanks.
Suzanne, wear an extra inch for me, my poor tootsies want my chucks and nothing less. Por Favor from a redheaded sister.
