Yes, Peppermint Hippo is a thing.<\/p>\n

And you remember Olympic Garden, right? This strip club was a Las Vegas institution prior to its abrupt closure<\/a> in 2016.<\/p>\n

The official name was OG’s Gentlemen’s Club & Male Revue.<\/p>\n

It’s time to rejuvinate this Las Vegas erection!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Olympic Garden was a strip club unicorn, as it catered to both men and women.<\/p>\n

There was a gentlemen’s club downstairs, and lots of ripped dude abs upstairs.<\/p>\n

The history of Olympic Garden is strewn with drama, tax issues and a variety of legal battles.<\/p>\n

Now, it seems, the venue will be home to a new offering, Peppermint Hippo, an obvious homage to Spearmint Rhino, another popular strip club chain.<\/p>\n

“South Park” nerds will recall Peppermint Hippo was featued on that animated series.<\/p>\n

We don’t know much about Peppermint Hippo, mostly because we are too lazy to do things like “research” or “exert effort of any kind.”<\/p>\n

The CEO of Peppermint Hippo is Alan Chang. His LinkedIn profile says the company “acquires and rebuilds adult nightclubs.”<\/p>\n

Chang’s profile also says he was Director of Business Development for the aforementioned Spearmint Rhino from 2005 to 2015.<\/p>\n

It also says, “Newest acquisition, Las Vegas,” although the takeover of Olympic Garden hasn’t been officially announced as far as we know.<\/p>\n

The closest Peppermint Hippo to Las Vegas currently seems to be in Reno<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The new Peppermint Hippo will be located between The Strip and downtown, on Las Vegas Blvd. at Wyoming Blvd. It’s not far from another Vegas landmark, Dino’s Lounge.<\/p>\n

The more Vegas strip clubs the better, we say, and look forward to checking the place out when it opens. Strictly for blog research purposes, obviously.<\/p>\n

Update (9\/30\/21): The owner of Peppermint Hippo, Alan Chang, confirmed our story. Not only that, he passed along a video of what Peppermint Hippo will look like after Olympic Garden is overhauled.<\/p>\n
