What did we learn from Studio 54?

Seems like the kind of place that people who think they’re super important, but aren’t, go.

We learned disco sucks.

True story:

When I was a kid, our neighbor went to jail for tax evasion. He did a short stretch at Club Fed located at Maxwell AFB in Montgomery. They don't have cells but its more a barracks arrangement with two man cubes.

His cube mate was Ian Schrager who's finishing up his stretch. They got to be good buddies and after he got out would go up and visit him and hang out. He would come back and brag about some of the famous people he met.

With nowhere else to go, the party spilled onto the street. One clubgoer waited outside with a group of friends, including a doctor packing a jumbo bottle of Quaaludes. “The doctor started handing them out,” he told Haden-Guest. “About 30 people standing around us took them, and then everybody started having this mad sexual orgy. All the men had their dicks out … the women were showing their tits … everybody was feeling everybody else … the crowd was moving in waves … all of a sudden you would find yourself next to someone you didn’t know.”
