Own a REAL Legal WHOREHOUSE that is for sale!
Owner Selling Chicken Ranch Brothel In Nevada
POSTED: 7:41 am EDT June 8, 2004
LAS VEGAS -- One of the best-known brothels in the business is up for sale, for just under $7 million.
Should prostitution be legal anywhere in the United States?
Yes, but only the places where it is already legal.
Yes, it should be legal all over the United States.
No. It should be illegal everywhere in the United States.
Owner Ken Green says he's turning 63 -- and figures someone younger can build on the name and the reputation of the legal brothel 60 miles west of Las Vegas.
He bought the Chicken Ranch 22 years ago for $1.25 million from a guy who put it Nye County, Nev., and named it after the real-life "Best Little Whorehouse in Texas" that closed in the 1970s.
Since then, Green says he's developed it from two double-wide trailers into a 40-acre spread with a bar, parlor, swimming pool and three bungalows with Wild West, jungle and Victorian themes.
Now, Green said he's got the name trademarked.
He's also been dabbling in the politics of sex in Las Vegas -- speaking up last year when Mayor Oscar Goodman raised the idea of making prostitution legal in Clark County, Nev.
It's only legal now in rural counties -- not Reno and Las Vegas.
