During his career, Derek Jeter stayed away from trouble and generally focused on playing the best baseball he could. By doing this, he built an incredible legacy and won 5 World Series titles while playing for the New York Yankees. Furthermore, he also developed a reputation as a straightforward guy whose sole focus was to win games. 

It was not as if Jeter did not party, but he generally focused on training and improving his game. This helped him maintain a clean image throughout his career. But when the Yankees legend was playing his last season, he received an offer from an establishment he didn’t frequent.

In 2014, Derek Jeter was playing his last season for the New York Yankees. As a tribute to honor his contributions to the game, many establishments offered him gifts and discounts. One of these establishments was Show Palace, a strip club located in Queens. According to HuffPost, Show Palace reportedly offered Jeter lifetime entry and other perks for his fantastic play as a Yankee. They offered this deal for September 7th. The same day that Jeter was being honored by the Yankees.

Per HuffPost, a representative of Show Palace said Jeter “gets unlimited lap dances and food and a lifetime free-entry pass to Show Palace as a thank you for his years of service as a New York Yankee.” This was definitely the most surprising offer that the Yankee legend would have received at the time.
