"Four Get" at La Grange, TX "chicken ranch"

[Bapopik at AOL.COM]

HDAS has "four F's" dating to the 1930s and 1940s, but no "four get." Was  
this used exclusively at the "chicken ranch" in Texas, or was it used  elsewhere?

Four Get (get up, get on, get off, get out)
 
"Four get” (like the word “forget") is a Texas A&M Aggie term that was  used 
at the _“chicken  ranch”_ 
(http://www.barrypopik.com/index.php/texas/entry/chicken_ranch_or_the_best_little_whorehouse_in_texas/)  ("best little 
whorehouse in Texas") at La Grange that was closed in  1973. 

“Four get” = 
“get up” 
“get on” 
“get off” 
“get  out.” 


October 1973, Texas Monthly, _Closing Down La  Grange”_ 
(http://www.texasmonthly.com/preview/1973-10-01/feature") : 
It had been what’s known in the trade as a “Four-get”: get up,  get on, get 
off, and get out.
