That depends on the state, different ones have different laws. I can't speak for Texas, but in GA full nude is allowed and the clubs can serve booze so you have to be 21 to get in. But that doesn't stop everybody from getting in.
Not a strip club but I knew girls who were 16/17 who got into regular night clubs, drank and even entered hot body & wet T-shirt contests that usually involved nudity. It was usually because they knew the owner of the club, or the bouncer, or the party promoter and that person bent the rules for them. That kind of thing happens all of the time if you know the right people. The boys probably knew the bouncer or someone who worked at the club and he let them in. Since the bouncer has to check ID the bartender figures that anyone who got in has already had their ID checked.
The idea that Ms. Davis could be a stripper in the same small town where she teaches HS and it wouldn't be well known is probably the biggest goof in the movie though. Some of the older boys who had already graduated would see her in the club and it would get back to their younger friends or their little brothers who were still in school and word would spread like wildfire. -

So you're saying I can go to texas, break the law (like killing someone) and won't go to jail because I play football?
No, I think we are saying that you couldn't possibly survive in Texas, and you probably never played football.
"like killing someone"????? clearly the MD and PhD were found in a box of cracker jacks. -

That was pretty much the attitude of the cops when I was in high school. They would come out to our party spots and make us take the keys out of the ignitions of our cars while we drank inside! Of course that was 40 years ago, before they got all militarized.

Sorry to rez the dead thread, but I was thinking this too. I'm guessing the cops and strip club let things slide especially for the star players on the team who are all seniors by then.
Doubtful they're 21, even with parents in Texas holding them back from starting school so they'll be bigger in high school, but 18 is not a stretch.
