Since we all seem to be reminiscing about Spurs and the Lane in its current form, I thought it'd be worth remembering the single greatest pre match bar/club ever in the history of pre match bars/clubs.
For those unaware, the Pleasure Rooms is/was (not sure if still there) a massive club type place near Bruce Grove, which is a 10/15 minute walk to the ground. It was always very dark inside and there were several different rooms. The name given to the event in the main room where Spurs fans gathered was 'Memory Lane'. Hundreds of Yiddos would gather inside there every Saturday around midday where the entertainment would begin. This was mainly naked women and comedians.
The women were filth. They'd pull up a willing man from the crowd and do all sorts of naughty with them. Except Sammi Jessop. She was so beautiful, she had the most amazing arse, though with the help of implants (we believed) She was allowed to just come on the stage and dance. She'd pull guys up too sometimes but it was all quite classy like a sexy lapdance, as opposed to the others who would pull someone up and suck them off in front of hundreds of cheering men. I still don't know how anyone could get a hard on let alone jizz in a room full of cheering men but hey, who am I to judge.
The comedians were hit and miss but mainly hit. At one point it got so popular, they were pulling in names like Little & Large and Chas & Dave. Little & Large might seem quite pathetic now but they were big back in the day and their off screen routine was very adult based. Chas & Dave came on and sung all their classics but no Spurs songs! The crowd started chanting 'we only want Spurs songs' and they started doing them but forgetting a lot of the words. It wasn't their greatest performance in all honestly but it was Chas & Dave singing Spurs songs in Tottenham on match day.
My lasting memory is one guy getting pulled up on stage, stripped naked and being whipped with his own belt by the girl. Each whip on his back and arse was met with horrified faces from the crowd. Then she got him to face her and she whipped his cock. Hard. The sound it made will live with me forever. He was floored by the pain and every guy in there doubled over in empathy. It was so fucking loud. I'm almost certain she caught him with the buckle. RIP that guy's penis.
And then at 230pm, we'd all walk down to the Lane to watch Spurs. Good old days the 90's were. We were so shit then, no one expected anything, so the crowd sung and sung. And maybe popped back to the club afterwards...
The place was shut down eventually. The nightclub was drug city so when it was closed down, Memory Lane went with it. I tried to set up something similar at my house but it never really got going.
Anyone remember this place?
