Any older folks here remember a stripper named Bubbles Cash ???

I am watching this movie:

Daughters of the Sexual Revolution: The Untold Story of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders (2018)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7980152/



According to it, during the 1967 Cotton Bowl in Dallas between the Dallas Cowboys and the Atlanta Falcons, a well known Dallas stripper named Bubbles Cash walked down toward the aisle on the home team side at halftime.

Everyone, from the fans to the players to the referees to Cowboys GM Tex Schramm, stopped to look at her.

That's when Schramm came up with the idea for the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders which would become the first NFL cheerleaders squad.

Before that the Cowboys and other NFL team had cheerleaders during games that were high school squads recruited from schools located in the home team city.

Photo of her taken at that 1967 Cotton Bowl:






I GOOGLE her and even found articles about her:

Including this discussion about her by folks asking her whereabouts where they mentioned she later owned a pawn shop named Top Cash around Webb Chapel:

She even has an IMDB entry:

and is mentioned on WIKI in the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders page:

She is even interviewed in an article about Jack Ruby:

1967 I was a little kid and I wasn't in Dallas yet.

I am sure they are some older folks here who are Dallas natives who still remembers her.

I did find online that Bubbles ran for Governor of Texas as a write-in candidate in 1990 and came in fourth place with 3,275 votes!

I wonder what happened to her?

p.s. could she be related to Bubbles DFW?

I remember her. I was at the game. We had season tickets. Also one of the boys
from my high school was a Cowboys Cheerleader.

One of my friend who is a Dallas native was in High School back then in what is now Oak Cliff but back then it was a White neighbohood.

He said:

She was quite a sensation at the time.

She appeared at the theater lounge in downtown Dallas.

My parents would take us to downtown to eat and watch a movie and we would walk by the lounge and I would always look at the pics of the strippers on the posters outside and Bubbles was on them.

That and the Carousel Club owned by Jack Ruby were about the only main strip clubs in Dallas at the time.

My friend also said they used to swim and fish (and eat whatever they caught) at Bachman Lake in the 50's and his parents did the same thing [at Bachman Lake] in the 30's and 40's.

I have driven by Bachman Lake many many times on the way to Northwest Highway strip clubs and I've seen folks rowing in it and of course the usual joggers running around in a big oval circle around the outside of it.

I have never seen anyone fishing from it.

I don't think I would eat anything that lives in it with the airport next to it.

Bet the water is contaminated by jet fuel and other chemicals that seeped into it through the ground and ground water.

I grew up in Oak Cliff and had the same experiences as your friend. I would go downtown with my dad.

He had stuff to do so he would give me a couple bucks and let me walk around downtown by myself. I loved checking out the hotels and looking at the pictures of the girls at the strip clubs.
Jack Ruby lived in Oak Cliff at 223 S. Ewing, room 207 I believe. It's now The City Inn and Suites.

Some other interesting names from the Jack Ruby era in Dallas are:
Candy Barr
Chris Colt (and her 45's)
Shane Bonderant (and her pet python)

I find history of any city I live in, fascinating!, especially when that history is about strippers and providers and hobbying.

Thank you!
