Dallas does what its best at. Building the good-old boys' network.: The Dallas Stars open up their own country club and give all the current season-ticket holders free membership. Now that's how you market a team to people who aren't (yet) fans, but have a lotta cash.

Wouldn't a team strip club be more appropriate in the NBA?

A team strip club would be more appropriate in any pro sport.

The amenities for Stars fans at American Airlines Center in Dallas are without a doubt the best I have ever experienced as a fan. Add on this perk and it makes the Stars a great deal for the fan with serious bucks. Tangent: The Robert Dedman mentioned in the article also has a hospital named after him. One time I called it for a news story and a woman answered, "Dedman Hospital -- this is Nurse Doom."

Corporate luxury boxes have long been catered to, more so than the average fan, so this seems par for the course(believe it or not, no pun intended). And I think its kinda cool to be able to play and maybe see a player on the course.
