The 40/40 Club - Hot Spots

The 40/40 Club is a chain of All-American sports bars and lounges owned by hip-hop mogul Jay-Z and partners Desiree Gonzalez and Juan Perez. The name is borrowed from the baseball term used to denote the exclusive group of Major League Baseball players who have achieved the rare individual feat of recording 40 home runs and 40 stolen bases in a single season.

On June 18, 2003, the first 40/40 Club opened in New York City; the Atlantic City location opened on October 25, 2005. The third 40/40 Club located inside Palazzo, an extension of the Venetian Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas; the grand opening was held December 30, 2007. Locations in Tokyo and Macau are scheduled to open in 2008.

The club is known for its live music, celebrity patrons, and sports memorabilia. The club rose to notoriety when Jay-Z referenced his investment in his 2003 song "Dirt off Your Shoulder" with the line "Now you chillin with a boss bitch of course, SC on the sleeve at the 40/40 club ESPN on the screen". The video for the Swizz Beatz produced Memphis Bleek single "Like That" was filmed at the club's New York location.
