The New Sin City Chamber of Commerce

18 December 2005 - 11:00am

Feeling ignored by the Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce, the region's adult industry forms its own

"It is an alternative chamber of commerce, one for a group of merchants who say they've been ostracized, denigrated and disrespected by the larger business community.

The annual barbecue is held at the Chicken Ranch, a brothel in Pahrump, Nev.

...The Sin City chamber represents strip clubs, "adult toy" manufacturers, pornography publishers, escort services and telephone-sex merchants, and some members who don't have anything to do with adult industries but who joined for the networking and referral opportunities."
