It took only a few seconds watching the lone dancer on IBT's back patio to decide Tucson has an entertaining gay bar. The gentleman shouted that he was "straight from the southside" as he gyrated, lifted his shirt up and rubbed his body from every angle imaginable. But it was when his hands shot skyward, and he started making the international copulation sign--with the thumb and index finger from one hand forming a circle, and the erect index and middle fingers from the other thrusting into it--that things truly began to sizzle. Bar-goers gave the man a wide berth to do his job. An acquaintance said he's a semi-regular, so an encore is likely in the works. Don't miss it.
