By Paul Ausick Published

Restraurant operator Rick’s Cabaret International Inc. (NASDAQ: RICK) has imported more than 100 strippers to Indianopolis ahead of this weekend’s Super Bowl game. A company spokesman told Bloomberg News:

We wouldn’t bring them down there if they weren’t going to make money for us, and they wouldn’t go unless they were going to make money for themselves.

Shares of Rick’s rose 18% last year, so the company clearly knows what its customers want.
