The Night a Strip Club Celebrated a World Series Win

Eleanor Vance · 2026-11-04

There's a certain irony to a Manhattan adult club sending congratulations to a baseball team in Milwaukee. But that's exactly what happened at Rick's Cabaret New York, and honestly? The story is more charming than you'd expect. ### When the Brewers Won, the Champagne Started Popping The dancers at Rick's Cabaret New York — the multi-level club on West 33rd Street known for its celebrity clientele and warm hospitality — sent a public shout-out to the Milwaukee Brewers after their World Series victory over the Tampa Bay Rays. It's a strange pairing on paper, but these performers know their sports crowd well. "We know a lot about baseball because sports guys are always here," said Katina, one of the club's dancers. "But we never reveal any names because we respect everyone's privacy." That discretion, she suggests, is part of why athletes keep coming back. ### An Open Invitation to Both Locker Rooms Olivia, another performer, didn't hold back. "Congratulations to the Brewers," she said. "We invite the team and all of their fans to celebrate with us, because it's always party time and so exciting at Rick's Cabaret! Flexing, popping bottles, making it rain, and with so many gorgeous girls!" Nadia took a softer approach toward the losing side. "The Brewers beat the Tampa Bay Rays and I feel a little sorry for them," she said. "But I invite all Rays fans to come see us and I promise the girls and I will cheer you up. We specialize in making people feel great." It's a smart bit of marketing, really — one message that flatters the winners and comforts the losers. Everyone walks away feeling like a VIP. ### More Than Just a Club What makes Rick's Cabaret New York different from your average gentlemen's club is the sheer scale of the place. The venue spans multiple levels and includes: - Private VIP suites and luxury skyboxes - A rooftop cigar lounge with skyline views - Rick's Steakhouse, led by executive chef Jayson Margulies - Daily three-course lunch specials, dinner service, and a late-night menu that runs until 3 AM That last point matters if you're the type who works late or plays later. The kitchen stays open long after most Midtown spots have locked their doors. ### The Location Does a Lot of the Work Rick's sits at 50 West 33rd Street — one block from Madison Square Garden. That's not an accident. On game nights, concert nights, and fight nights, the neighborhood fills up fast, and the club is positioned right in the middle of it. The parent company, RICK, is even listed on NASDAQ, which tells you this isn't a scrappy little operation. So whether you're a Brewers fan still riding the high, a Rays supporter nursing a bruised ego, or just someone who wandered into Midtown looking for a good steak at midnight, the door is open. And according to the dancers, the party doesn't stop early. > "We specialize in making people feel great." — Nadia, Rick's Cabaret New York Sometimes a press release is just a press release. But every now and then, it's a reminder that in New York, even the celebrations have a venue — and someone's always ready to pour the next round.
