Sean Bishop is considered the strip club prince of Daytona Beach, Fla. He recently took some time out of his day to stop by the Minnesota Vikings team facility and warn their rookie players of guys like him.
“I tell them I am a scumbag club owner who will use and abuse you,” Bishop told the St. Paul Pioneer Press. “I just don’t want to see any of them ruin their lives. They need to be protected from themselves.”
Bishop says that pro athletes feel like kings while sitting in the VIP section of a strip club and then when something goes down, they’re unwilling to back down and walk away from a dangerous situation.
“These guys get comfortable in the VIP section and think they’re not being seen and forget where they’re at,” Bishop said. “Being a competitive athlete, it’s hard for them to turn the other cheek or swallow their pride and walk away from bad situations. Instead, they make a scene and forget where they’re at, because the owner’s treating them like a king, they’re young and think they’re invincible when all it takes is one snapshot and you’re done.”
