If you haven't been on the Twitters in the last couple of days, you're missing out on one of the best Oxford-related hashtag chains in recent memory. It's called #OxfordStripClubNames, and well, it's pretty self explanatory.
A few Ole Miss bros kicked this off on Monday night and it's blown the fuck up, reaching national trending status by Tuesday.
We did it! News of a possible strip club in a town of 17,000 is trending nationally #olemiss #OxfordStripClubNames http://t.co/YB0nUC2Pyo

This has all come about because the city passed a preemptive ordinance this week to essentially keep strip joints from moving into town. According to a report by WMCTV.com:
The Oxford Planning Commission approved an ordinance that would regulate sexually-orientated businesses. That ordinance would give the commission control over where the businesses could open and restrict alcohol sales.
Apparently a few entrepreneurs had been making requests and gauging interest, so the city decided to nip it in the bud. I sure as hell wouldn't go to a booze-less strip club, so they've probably accomplished their goal.
For the record, we at the Cup are in full support of an Oxford-based gentleman's club, and think it should be placed directly next to City Hall, just for trolling's sake.
The trend started as mostly literary references:

This nudie bar would be highly trafficked, but there's definitely some that would be stopping in more than others. Here's our list of the top-5 projected patrons:
- Andy Kennedy.
- Sparky Reardon in disguise.
- Marshall Henderson, who would repeatedly request the song "Make it Rain," toss a fistful of ones then throw up the Landshark.
- William Faulkner. You better believe he'd crawl out of his damn grave to see this shit.
