I know two mongers who dated bar girls (BG) and cutting them off if they started charging.

BearBare, by bar girls do you mean same thing as dancers?

[BearBare]

Funny thing is I find everything you just summarized as plausible in the Zona.

In the sommer of 2016 or 2017 (Iforget) there was a gang of rateros around 5 or 6 deep between Coahulia and Primera, on Constitucion. If you spent more than 10 minutes across from Thereseas cart (across from Playboi) you would have seen them with the cuantos guys. They (the 2 girls) tried to rob El Oso (from TJA), they also tried robbing Lyndsie (walker) as she came out from buying Coke and cigarettes (I was actually on the phone with her as it happened). I watched a gringo chase them (all 5-6) as I talked to Cindy (walker from Philly). Why short? They were early teens and dressed as stylish teens do. They were 14-16 years old and were indeed small in stature, which I believe is why they failed robbing Barbarian (from defunct TJA site). Their huge flaw was being so easily found in the same spots. One day they robbed a local who came back with a gun. Ratero was shot dead in front of Playboi by the taco stand. I never really noticed the guys any more (male ratero was shot) but the two girls still try to rob people still (as of July-August 2018 which is when I took an operational pause from Zona mongering).

I know two mongers who dated bar girls (BG) and cutting them off if they started charging totally seems plausible because I know that would - - - - me offf. I work with a guy who openly admits hes dating a BG from HK and I would call him BS. Except I ran into him at HK with her. And then on the street by their apartment. This dude sells his plasma for $ so I'm sure he would cut her off if she tried charging. IDK.

I get stopped dozens of time by Tijuana policia and I'm sporting a military reg haircut, black long sleeved shirt (usually Nine Inch Nails concert shirt), desert sand colored 5. 11 tactical pants and Oakley 6" boots. Nothing in my hands. I usually have just enough to take a walker up for an hour or 2-3 street girls which is about $60, which. Is not enough for a hotel. I park in front of McDonalds next to PedWest (no overnight allowed) so I am never intending to stay. The cops know who has the drugs so they're very blatantly stopping any gringo they feel like. There's no shortage of guys on the forums who at times think the taxis are in on it (driving with lights off or flashing lights to signal a Mark) or for awhile Premier motel staff. Some Tijuana escort agencies still won't send girls there.

Its funny, Lynsie (Lyndsy?) used to despise guys who hung out on monger forums. I asked why since that's how I found her and she knew I used to get on TJA. She says "nothing more pathetic than guys gossiping about prostitutes," however, I would counter it seems more pathetic to gossip about mongers who gossip about prostitutes.

Who cares? Winning an argument on the internet is liking winning the special olympics as a fully capable adult. Winning girls wrestling when you were born a male. Sure you won. But did you?

Don't sweat the petty things. Go to Tijuana and pet the sweaty things.

OK. Hold the phone. I'm going to stick up for Jackie. Criticism pointed at him is completely unwarranted.

I, too, wanted to call BS on the OP's post. The dude's credibility is in the toilet. More in a sec. I've been crossing for around 20 years, first with a CA DL, then with a passport, then a passport card, then with SENTRI. On foot, and by car. I have never, ever, been asked for the names of anybody I've seen in Mexico. I could give them, but I've not been asked. I see now that a couple of guys have been asked, so I guess it does happen.

I'll be heading to Tijuana Fri night Feb 15 for the zona and will be around for all Saturday Feb 16 too. It would be nice to buy any of you regulars a drink or two for all the solid posts in this Tijuana forum.

Yesterday I watched the American movie "Miss Bala", now in cinemas. Filmed in Tijuana, Rosarito (hotel La Sirena) and Valle de Guadelupe. Movie is not bad and lots of action. Here is the trailer link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MaI-4NepPfU.

To Juan Carter.

HK owns La Cueva de Peludo. Silvia Santex looks hot. You owe it to yourself to check her out plus the other 100 girls working Hk every night, equally hot and sexy. You may find the talents in Tijuana abundant and any sexual desires can be quickly satisfied. Here are a few hot HK girls.

I will be out of the country for the whole month. Otherwise it would be fun to meet you.

Pornstar Silvia Santez.

[Juan Carter]

Her calendar on www.angelesmex.com says she will be in Tijuana the 26th, 27th and 28th of March. Her twitter page asserts she will perform on the 28th at La Cueva de Peludo. She normally charges $3,000 an hour with BBBJ included but I don't know about Tijuana. She asks for a $500 peso deposit. I haven't been to Tijuana in decades and this is an opportune event to rationalize the trip.

This is a good link from the Tijuana tourist office. Hotels, Restaurants, etc. (sorry, no nudity he he he) http://www.descubretijuana.com/en.

Any ATMs that give USD instead of pesos in or around ZN?

Banorte on 4th (https://goo.gl/maps/gMbiJYVYvpm) has a dual currency ATM (more than one, I think). Fees are reasonable, like 3 bucks or so total. Scotiabank next door to it may also. These places will also exchange Canadian dollars (and other global currencies) when they're open. The change place opposite Costco will exchange Euros, but not many others will.

Dear GNRPorch,

I am sorry that I doubted you. It was an honest mistake

OK. Hold the phone. I'm going to stick up for Jackie. Criticism pointed at him is completely unwarranted.

I, too, wanted to call BS on the OP's post. The dude's credibility is in the toilet. More in a sec. I've been crossing for around 20 years, first with a CA DL, then with a passport, then a passport card, then with SENTRI. On foot, and by car. I have never, ever, been asked for the names of anybody I've seen in Mexico. I could give them, but I've not been asked. I see now that a couple of guys have been asked, so I guess it does happen.

But my point is this. OP has, at various times, posted utter nonsense. Entertaining, but nonsense. He was mugged. OK, many of us have been. But, in this case, not by one or two rateros. No, it was a gang of maybe 5, or 6, or who knows. Not just any gang, a well-dressed gang (like they were going clubbing afterwards). Guys and girls. All very short. Unless the dude looks like Kareem, I guess it was a gang of well-dressed midgets. Umm, sorry. Little People.

He complained about getting stopped frequently by cops in the Zona. Then goes on to tell us that he's too cheap / poor for a hotel, so he carries his worldly belongings (presumably change of socks, underwear, toiletries, etc.) in coat pockets. That doesn't look suspicious at all, I wonder why all the extra attention?

It gets better. All the cabbies in Tijuana are psychics because they know when they drop you at HK or AB you have at least $300 in your pockets. Presumably they use this super power to help the rateros / cops rob you.

But wait. There's more. He used to get all sorts of OTC fun with an HK girl at her house. But the second she presumed to ask for money he kicked her to the curb. No pushover, him. I admit it seems odd for a girl who sells sex for money to ask him to chip in.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Mr. Jackie being extremely skeptical of anything the OP has to say. In my case, I ran out of salt grains long ago.

"Called "Tijuana Trump," Gastelum repeatedly has expressed his objections to the caravan and called for its organizers to be identified and prosecuted for taking advantage of desperate people and putting their lives at risk.

What most rankles immigration advocacy groups are his characterizations of caravan migrants- thousands of whom have arrived in Tijuana, overwhelming its shelters and other resources – as invaders and criminals.

In local interviews, Gastelum, who occasionally has worn a "Make Tijuana Great Again" hat, said the caravan included "pot smokers, bums and bad people. "

"Tijuana is a city of migrants but we don't want them arriving in this way. It was different with the Haitians, they had immigration papers, their arrival was orderly, it wasn't a horde, excuse the expression. . . " he said, according to the Mexico News Daily. "These people arrive in an aggressive, rude way, chanting, challenging the authorities, doing what we're not accustomed to doing in Tijuana. . . I don't dare to say that it is all the migrants but there are some who are bums, pot smokers, they're attacking families in the beachside neighborhood Playas de Tijuana, what is that?

Heads up from the Mayor of Tijuana- watch your six for the next wave of Caravan "Bad People and Bums".

OK, I get it. Sorry for the false assumption.

Fun fact to add to the already overwhelming evidence to support this opinion: he just recently posted that he's an attorney but always talking about he has such a tight budget going to Tijuana. I think it's common knowledge that lawyers get paid well enough to be able to splurge on some mongering in Teejay.

Not all attorneys are rich ambulance chasers. A few are actually in the profession hoping to make a small change in the world. Not in the profession myself, but a few family members have gone to law school to be better advocates for injustices.

I have also been asked "What was her name?" when I told the agent I was coming from Hong Kong. Regardless, I think we can ease up on Jackie888. Even if it's a perfectly plausible situation. A broken clock is right twice a day.

I am a licensed CPA in California.

I also follow a tight budget when I visit Tijuana (generally offering 100 pesos for blow jobs from walkers and 100 or 150 pesos for citas with street girls).

You are free to not believe me as well. But you would be dead wrong.

Hey Jackie: Maybe you should apologize to GNRPorch?

I recall reading numerous posts from guys who said to CBP they were visiting their girlfriends in Tijuana. That illicited follow-up questions from the CBP agents.
