What Is the Hot Seat? Denver's Favorite Bachelor Party Tradition, Explained
Every DSO party opens the same way. A chair gets pulled to the middle of the room, the guest of honor gets walked to it by girls who have done this a thousand times, and for the next stretch of the night he is the entire show. That's the Hot Seat, it's the signature of every party we throw, and this is the story of why no bachelor party should ever skip it.

QUICK ANSWER: What is the Hot Seat at a bachelor party? The Hot Seat is the opening tradition of every Denver Strippers Official party: the guest of honor takes the chair in the middle of the room and the girls open the show on him, a lap dance and a little loving hazing while his boys watch it happen. It breaks the ice in one minute flat and hands the groom the moment the whole weekend was built around. |
WHY EVERY PARTY OPENS WITH IT
It kills the awkward instantly. Every party has eleven awkward minutes at the start. The Hot Seat deletes them. Once the groom's in the chair, the whole room is in the party.
It makes the night about HIM. At a club he's another bachelor in the building. In the Hot Seat he's the headliner, and his boys are the audience he'll never live it down in front of.
It sets the energy for everything after. The games, the dances, the whole show runs hotter after the Hot Seat because the room's already roaring.
It's the story that gets retold. Ask any group what they remember at the wedding. It's the chair. It's always the chair.
HOW IT ACTUALLY GOES DOWN
The girls arrive, the room gets read, and the chair comes out early, before anyone's overthinking. The guest of honor gets summoned, the guys get loud, and the girls open the show on him with the mix of tease and hazing they've perfected across a thousand parties. How far the moment goes runs on the room's energy and, like everything in this business, on the tips. The better the guys tip, the wilder it gets.

INSIDER TAKE: Best men, here's your play: have the guys' cash out BEFORE the Hot Seat starts. When the girls see a room that came ready, the opening number becomes the opening ceremony. And nominate a hype captain, one loud friend with singles changes the entire chemistry of the moment. |
HOT SEAT VARIATIONS WE LOVE
The Birthday Chair. Same throne, different guest of honor, works for 21st through 50th and beyond
The Double Seat. Big parties with two girls sometimes run a second chair for the best man. Nobody warns him. That's the point
The Mountain Throne. At cabin parties the Hot Seat happens fireside, and Breckenridge cabins have witnessed things Main Street will never know
HOT SEAT QUESTIONS
Does every party get the Hot Seat?
Every single one, it's how DSO opens a show. Bachelor parties, birthdays, game days, if there's a guest of honor, there's a chair with his name on it.
What if the groom is shy?
The shy ones give the best Hot Seats, ask any of the girls. The chair does the work, he just has to sit in it, and his boys handle the volume.
Can we film it?
No filming, that's the house rule that protects everybody including him. Photos WITH the girls happen at their discretion. The Hot Seat lives in memory, which is exactly where legends belong.
Does the Hot Seat cost extra?
It's included in every show, check Shows and Pricing for the lineup. What happens AFTER the Hot Seat, the games and the upgrades, that's where tip cash takes over.
