Hercules is a gay club in Liberty City that is mentioned in Grand Theft Auto IV and appearing proper in The Ballad of Gay Tony.

Description

Hercules is one of several Liberty City clubs owned by Anthony Prince, also known as "Gay Tony", and one of several locales where Luis Fernando Lopez works as a bouncer. Bernie Crane also first met his current (and secret) boyfriend Bryce Dawkins during a foam party at the club while high on ecstasy. According to the Libertytreeonline.com, the club has been closed alongside Maisonette 9, following revelations of its club goers taking and selling drugs in the premises.

The club appears in The Ballad of Gay Tony as a proper location where the player, assuming the role of Luis Fernando Lopez, may visit. It is also mentioned in the radio station Integrity 2.0. The station's host Lazlow mistakenly believes that the club is for heterosexuals. The location of the club is within the northern edge of Westminster, Algonquin, at Galveston Avenue, just beside the Algonquin end of the Booth Tunnel, and is manned by a doorman named Troy. The actual club does not exist in the main game or The Lost and Damned, as the same location is simply a nondescript grilled storefront with a Hinterland logo on a window.

Trivia

• There is only one security official at Hercules called Troy, and a topless barman who dances around and gives Luis free drinks.
• Though being a gay club, Luis can still dance with a heterosexual woman on the dance floor.
• In the grand theft auto episodes from liberty city disc on tlad you can see the exterior of the clubs but if you download tlad you see the hinterland logo.
