Man Dies of Lap Dance After Suffering Silent Heart Attack (VIDEO)
One El Paso, Texas man may have discovered one of the most surefire ways to receive free entertainment after literally passing on his bill.
A 67-year-old man decided to attend a strip club last Friday night, and refused to leave when it was time to pay the bill. Robert Gene White received a number of lap dances, but as it came time to pay, the man appeared unresponsive.
It appears that White suffered a heart attack while receiving a lap dance and went unnoticed until the end of the night, when the girls who had serviced White were seeking to get paid.

White was not immediately identified but taken to Del Sol Medical Center, where he passed away an hour after being discovered at the Red Parrot strip club. Chris Acosta, spokeswoman for the El Paso County Sheriff's Office, revealed that police were investigating the death, although no reason for the investigation was provided according to the El Paso Times.
The incident occurred sometime before 11:30 p.m., at which point emergency service was called after club owners discovered the man was unconscious. The owners of the club failed to issue a statement.
The Red Parrot was opened in 1994, and is advertised as the place "where the big boys play."
According to one report, silent heart attacks are not all that uncommon and frequently go unnoticed.
"Undiagnosed, or "silent," heart attacks affect nearly 200,000 people in the United States annually. As many as 40 to 60 percent of all heart attacks are unrecognized," CNN repoted in 2009.
