So what's your take on Tijuana?
 

Going there this weekend with friends and wondering what to expect.

expect the third world country experience

See what the USA will look like soon.:1orglaugh

If you like Hookers it is fun as hell, it helps if you speak a little spanish too, they have great restaurants, wild night clubs and lots of prostitutes.

Where is Tijuana?????????

just don't raise a red flag..
never piss on the streets, or vomit..
don't let a drunk friend separate from your group..
Don't look at cops in the eyes..etc..

Mexican border with San Diego.

watch for cops
watch for guys trying to steal your shit
don't fuck without the rubber
watch the water, stick to the beer/tequila it'll be safer
no passing out in public
don't get arrested (not fun!)

expect one big fucking toilet

It is the arm pit of Mexico...I went once about 2 years ago when I was in SD and would never go again


Mr. Romance

I hate the border towns of Mexico... they are all shitholes. Everyone in the US automatically assumes that the rest of Mexico is like that too...

If you're ever in El Paso, try visiting Juarez, makes TJ look like Phoenix.

What he said...

how could you live here and just now get around to going to TJ?

For sure..you are right.. I have a good friend in El Paso and he will not take me there..Plus they have had alot of murders there as well like several hundred

Mr. Romance

haha man i just bought tickets to go there in 2 weeks

hit me up i'll tell ya where to go and what to expect... everyone should be able to get drunk, fed & fucked for less than a hundo ea :)

I would stay out, but if you have to see it, Watch out for Strippers picking you pockets.

Everyone? LOL I like the accusation of assumptions, filled with an assumption itself.:1orglaugh

dont fucking go. thats my take. the federalies robbed me and a friend there. we were not doing anything wrong at all, they just ambushed us and took us down an alley. stole our money. :321GFY its pretty much a cesspool there anyway. if anything run down to ensanada. it on the beach, not as shitty as a place as TJ. And a tab bit safer. I say tad.......

Take a lot of spare change, like 2 pockets full. That way you can give something to all the little 4 and 5 year old mexican kids. They will walk up to you, not say a word, hold up a cup, and just stare at you with an upside down smile.

Over there in Tijuana, the poor breed in large numbers.

Well let's not forget you need change in order to support Mexico's biggest export the Chiclete' market.

Ya... don't drink the water, for sure.

Also, don't ask what's in the taco you're eating... as delicious as it might be - you might not want to know.

Too, don't buy anything on the street markets and expect it to last longer than 3 months.

And expect the liquor to be watered down.

1. The U.S just passed a very shitty law that says you now need a passport to get back into the U.S that is unless your driving back in. Driving is not that scary if you know your way around like I do and buy Mexican Insurance for $20 for the day but you probbaly dont know your way around so make sure you have a passport.

2. Becareful almost 70% of ALL the hot girls in the TJ strip clubs are men!!! An easy way to spot this is compare the girls hands, if they have big hands most of the time they are men.


3. Do not piss in public, fight or do anything you would not do in the U.S.


4. Fuck some hookers at adelitas!!!

5. Go to Club Animale if your over 27, they wont let you in the HOT clubs if you look to old. If you want $7 all you can drink go to Margarita Village on the corner of 3rd and Revolucion

6. If you do get in trouble with the police, ask them if you have to go to jail or if you could just pay the fine on the spot? They only make about a $400 monthly salary so $30 is enough for them to let you go (They make $0 from taking you to jail). Make sure your spending cash is hidden in your shoe or something but have a wade of 20 $1 bills with a $10 on the outside and that will excite them ennogh to let you go. This has worked 6 times for me.

7. Only drink bottled water of course

8. If you need a hotel stay at pueblo amigo, its by far the best in all of TJ, Rosarito and Ensenada.

I think thats just about everything. Well Im sure I left out a few things but that should get you started.

DONT PISS IN PUBLIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No matter how bad you have to go!!!!!!!

its full of hookers, booze and drugs.

Not my kinda town.

ur the man

PAY ATTENTION TO #4

This has not gone into effect yet.

Fuck TJ, Nogales rules.

Currently, the military is policing the streets of Tijuana. You might wanna read this news article

Leave your wallet (and your car) on the US side of the border!!!

:1orglaugh No shit! :Oh crap

Super clean....they really take care of their city. friendly police officials always willing to help you out.

Expect Mexicans, and lots of them.

help you out of your money. fuckers. :321GFY

cheech once had a hard time leaving there..........

Don't leave your wallet at home but DO NOT TAKE CREDIT CARDS!!! You're a fool to use them in a border town and if you get into any kind of trouble the cops will take you to an ATM and shake you down for everything you can withdraw. My brother got arrested in Nogales for cocaine a couple months ago and was able to get off for $30 because he didn't have any credit cards.

Don't forget your Passport, starting tomorrow, you'll need it to get back into the US.

It is like that already... no? :1orglaugh

That's for air travel. Land travel doesn't take effect till 2008.

Do: take enough cash just in case you need to pay a cop (a bribe).

Don't: walk off the main drag (Ave. Reveluccion).

Dude, everyone is making a big deal.

I have been there many times. Just use common sense and you will be just fine.

I am waiting for someone to post that they will drug you and sell your liver on the black market.
