Might be fun to bar hop unless you want a cozy spot. For a cozy spot the Hotel Ticuan bar would be a nice option away from crowds.

For something like a huge sporting event I'm all about the crowds so I'll check out Revolucion and see what's good up there thanks. I've seen on TV in the past that maybe they even set up big screen viewing right by the Arch (though I'd probably prefer a seat inside a bar and don't know how chilly it'll end up being.

[QUOTE=Covid2020;2762793]Hi guys,

Are there any Tijuana style clubs in mexico city, would be visiting for a week. I checked cdmx sub forum but couldn't find any info. Posting here since Tijuana forum has high traffic. Any seniors (capitan, dogers) who have exp with mexico scene any insights, I can't do escorts, prefer the club scene.[/QUOTE]I've spent a lot of time in CDMX over the last ten years, and I'm sorry to say, but you're SOL on finding anything resembling HK, AB, etc. Your options are street girls, in several different areas, escorts, or my preferred route, SA.

[QUOTE=Dogers69;2762497]I watched alot utube steamers in Columbia last two years, while it will be more easy to find a thin lonely, available girl to hang out with you for free even maybe, or few dollars, the streets were violent for a gringo. They choked out wandering nirvana for his phone on the 1st day or so. Anyone who needs to ask, which is better, should 100% be going only to HK Tijuana because at least in this place everyone is safe and there's not gonna be no drugging dudes, chiming them out in the room, none of this crap will be happening its actually a tightly run ship despite our nitpicking complaints we do for fun.[/QUOTE]Alot of interesting comments on MDE vs Tijuana. I'll offer my opinion. I'm a bit of a veteran now in both locations. Disclaimer: I do have a slight preferrence for MDE. But I want to give two thoughts.

1 - It's pointless to compare the two. At least not with a definitive answer. They both have pros and cons comparatively. But I would say the pro vs con depends on the monger and their preferences. So I'd say research and determine what you like. If HK is your speed, there is no HK in MDE. If you are into lengthier dates, MDE is where you should go. There are dozens of variables and plenty of fellow mongers to help you out. I'd just be aware of your "hunting" style.

2- I would never say MDE is more dangerous. Not sure I'd say Tijuana is more dangerous either. Yes, there is one area of MDE I would not wander around after dark. Beyond that, most of what you hear is overblown or speculation. Virtually all of the gringo areas in MDE are extremely safe. Here again, we all have different comfort levels. But if you avoid Centro in MDE at night, I don't think your odds of trouble are any higher in MDE.

Anyone wants my own opinion, PM me. Or I'll be in the zona Saturday.

I forgot to mention during my last trip I was questioned by local pd when I went to visit playa tijuana. First time it happened in the 4 trips I been there. Just thought maybe I'd share some advice and a heads up. So I was close to the beach near the boardwalk and I was looking for a nice area to take a picture. I came across some what of a alley that has steps that go up to the main street. I thought it would be a good spot since not a lot of people where walking up the steps. After a couple of minutes hanging out there and taking photos while I was moving around a portable $5 tripod for my phone I noticed 2 cops walking down the steps and sure enough they began asking me questions, what was I doing, where I was from, what do I do for a living, have I visited before etc. I didn't think of it at the time but I told them I've been to tijuana several times and everything has always been cool and no one's ever bother me. They could of taken that the wrong way. One of the cops asked me what I had in my hand and I explained to him it was a bluetooth clicker for the tripod to take pictures. After asking for my ID they informed me that they were doing random searches to look for any contraband or weapons and I said that's fine. I had a small cross shoulder bag on me and I opened it up for them, at the same time I was keeping my eyes on them making sure they wouldn't slip something in my bag. I had my wallet in there with like $200 usd and I was like shit I can kiss that money goodbye. He questioned me about some cigars I had and asked me if there was any illegal substance in it. But I kept calm and told them no and where I bought the cigars. To my surprise they they gave me my ID back and told me to have a good day. I thought for sure I was going to have to at least give some money up but apparently either not every cop down there out to get you or I just got lucky. Keep in mind there was 2 cops and I was alone in that pathway of stairs. They could of easily planted something on me and ask me to pay a fine to let me go. I'm thinking they were looking to shake down people who have weed etc on them and extort them. Either way that was my cue to get the hell out of there because I noticed they came back down the stairs when they saw that I was leaving the area. I wasn't taking any chances and had a uber on it's way to pick me up LOL.

Mexico has tons of channels and I'm sure there will be World Cup 2022 somewhere because Mexico is also playing.

I was at HK club during an early morning for the finals for a 2018 World cup game that Mexico played at. And it was a blast. All the gals stopped dancing.

The club became a regular sports club for about an hour.

I get that for the games where Mexico is playing everyone in the club (including the workers) would be focused on that, but am thinking for the games not involving Mexico they'll have the music blasting with girls constantly approaching you. Would rather chill and focus solely on enjoying the game with other sports fans. With that said, I'll definitely still check out the Zona during the World Cup and at least see how it is.

It is fairly routine for the police to search people to see if they can extract a bribe. If is better carry your money in your body. This way you have more control if the cops search you. If I sense a cop is going to stop me I immediately take money out and hold it in my hand with my cell phone. The cops will often say they need to search your wallet and take some money. I have noticed the police have not been shaking people down much in the Zona recently. I believe this is because there the national guard is patrolling.

Trying to find what the router for the purple striped van back to Centro is. ? I have taken the purple & white taxi van from Constitucion back to the border. There is a lot of good looking restaurants I would like to try that I just east of the Tijuana river?

I went to eat qt Carl juniors and my friend went to the bathroom, 4 cops walk in and sit next to me. I felt like asking them if they want to pat me down. The emptier the street thr more likely mexixo police will stop you. Never carry large money like rent or l to buy a car in mexixo because they may take it. They usually not interested in small money 100 130 and less.

Love can make people stupid. They even had their hands over my gun bag when they searched the trunk of my car. I recalled thinking oh fuck, here we go with an international incident and I can kiss my career goodbye. But they were obviously looking for (smokable) contraband in small containers like e-cigarettes filled with pot, and a big bag of obvious heavy tools isn't going to carry those. Your new LEO friends were probably looking for E-pens with contraband and so your tiny remote control looked more more of a seize than my guns. Yeah, I did consider flooring the accelerator. But would have made it harder to explain if they nabbed me.

Reporting back about an attempt to find a good massage parlour.

Was in Tijuana for a couple days and on the first full day I went in search of VivaMex and found it. HOwever, did not try it. I was talking to a local and said "Secret Massage" was good. I thought to give it a try and did, and it was terrible. It is on Miguel Hidalgo and Revolution in a yellow building. Repeat! NOT WORTH IT.

First, the girls were only 3 to choose from. I picked the least ugly.

Second, the massage was hands just gliding over the body. No power behind them, no real massage, more like a body rub.

Third, $50 for "an hour". I did not time her, but if felt very short. I've had hour long massages and part of me wondered when it would end. This one did and abruptly.

Kind enough people, but I did not go for conversation. I wanted to get should knots rubbed out and such.

Sex and Happy endings are negotiable. I played along to see what I could get. She wanted $50 for a handjob, which maybe could have meant sex but a language barrier. ? I started at $20, and we could have got to $30, but I wasn't interested from the very start so it was just a lack luster body rub.

[QUOTE=Izl80;2730166]VivaMex Massage.

VIVA MEX at Avenida Revolucion 962, Tijuana, MX 22000.

Since my go to Massage places with no H. E. Has shutdown.

I have been going to this place post Pandemic.

Located across Caliente Casino at revolution.

They offer massages at hourly increments and do have 4 hand options.

They offer 1-hour specials on certain days.

Hot shower (before or after massage available) Bring your favorite lotion or end up using their massage oil.

MERMAID MASSAGE: bar / massage across Hongkong bar (have not used) but is more chika presentation have a bar setup pre-COVID.

It is a door between barbershops and leads to a stairwell. They offer massage and H. E. Precovid and a male attendant from Cuba offers foot treatment (callous removal).

Hope this helps and let us know what's up![/QUOTE]

They were more interested in my torch lighter for my cigars, first thing he asked was if it had wax in it lmao I told him no it's a lighter.
