When watching pictures of the interior of CPP for the first time something caught my eye. There are custom made table lights made from heavy steel tubes. The way they are constructed it looked to me like it was possible to support the weight of a person. In my mind I pictured a stripper standing on every of those steel bars and suddenly the family restaurant transformed into something from 'From Dusk Till Dawn'.
I didn't want to say anything because that was pure speculation and just because something matches the picture does not make it true. However today I came across this picture. And now I'm convinced that my initial gut feeling was right. Kid friendly place my ass. Those steel bars are made for strippers to entertain the guests.

Stripper poles are generally vertical, not horizontal, right? I don't know I have only ever seen strip clubs on TV

That's why I tried not to call them poles. There are many object strippers use to turn on the guests like swings or trapezoids or chairs or whatever. But my point is that those 'table lights' are constructed in a way that tells me that lighting is not their main purpose. Would those be installed in a nightclub that would make perfect sense but in a kid friendly place these are totally out of place (like a stripper pole would be).

It seems more likely to me that they are designed to look like nets that the "ping pong balls" (globe shape pendants) are clearing.

You apparently know more about strippers than I do!

Here's Alefantis doing a creepy manspread while perched atop those same lights. Out of all the poses he could take up there, he does a crotch shot.
