Just when you're kicking as much ass in Rockin'Yoga as an aerobics class named "RockinYoga" will allow you to kick, now you have to worry about parasites (not the ones wearing Bluetooths) when you hit the showers. Fancy Upper West Side gym Reebok Sports Club has bedbugs. Again. This time they found them in a locker in "the men's executive locker room," where it was probably feasting on the blood of some hedge fund manager because it tastes like butterscotch.
The Daily News reports that a sign outside the club warned its patrons, including Taye Diggs and Chris Rock, that they had to exercise at their own risk, and "the member whose locker was affected was immediately notified…their locker and belongings were fully sterilized," and a scalding brand bearing the word "UNCLEAN" was presumably thrust into his flesh.
When the club (also where Jerry Seinfeld pulled a Newt Gingrich and found his next wife while she was still married) last had bedbugs, a courageous "Marketing and Brand Strategy Consultant" chastised the business on its Facebook page for not being forthcoming with the discovery. This time, it appears they've erred on the side of full disclosure. And to be fair, bedbugs that go to fancy gyms probably don't pass gas because they're on that new raw diet that really worked for Tiffany, so they're even harder to detect. Either way, the club says it "no longer has evidence of bedbugs," so it can go back to concentrating on more important things, like all those "unwanted facials" we seem to be getting.
