Bloemfontein - The Chippendale strippers want to forget their visit to the City of Roses as soon as possible.
Men from Bloemfontein beat up one of the Chippendales after he had apparently been too keen on a pretty Greek woman.
In addition, students threw eggs at the strippers and some of their clothes were stolen.
Informed sources who knew about the beating the nude dancer got, told Volksblad on Monday that one of the Chippendales had laid a charge of assault against a Bloemfontein man.
The strippers were at a venue in Second Avenue on September 3 when one of the dancers apparently started flirting with a married Greek woman.
"The woman's husband was furious and involved his friends in tracing the dancer (Paul Dunn).
After searching for a week, they found him in the city on Saturday and beat him black and blue,'' said a Bloemfontein man who saw the commotion.
Visited the women's residences
Roxanne Parsons, an events organiser touring the country with the Chippendales, said she knew of a "disagreement" between one of the dancers and a man from Bloemfontein, but did not want to go into details.
Commenting on the egg-throwing and the stolen clothing, she said: "The Chippendales visited the women's residences at the University of the Free State at the weekend. They began introducing themselves to the girls.
"We were doing a promotion for the performances and told the girls they could use their student cards to get a 50% discount for shows.
"The dancers were on their way out when a bunch of men students raced by in a bakkie and pelted them with eggs.
"We also had a nasty incident when some of the dancers' leather trousers and waistcoats and the Chippendale T-shirts we were planning to sell, were stolen from the Callie Human Hall."
Charges of theft of the clothes were also laid with the police, but not about the egg pelting.
