 | |  |  | Avenida Revolucion: Gentlemen beware | Tip Rating:    |  |  | |  |
I just returned from TJ after a jaunt south of the border on a business trip to San Diego. As we've all heard the horror stories of TJ, fortunately this is not one of them!
However, if you wish to check out some of the gentlemen's clubs (i.e. dancers) at the many establishments, it is important to understand that they intend to drain your wallet.
If several men outdoors try to get you indoors (and believe me, they will), be aware that once you're inside, the people who brought you indoors will hound you for a tip. I bought a $3 beer, and I was told (strongly) to "buy the lady a beer". The waitress returned with a mixed drink for which they charged $10.00. And the dancer drinks it. For ten bucks you don't even get the drink!! This simultaneously happened to my friend, unbeknownst to one another because the dancers kept us occupied. Also the dancers, waitresses, and bartenders kept making eye contact/signals to the bouncers, too. I got the feeling that they were letting each other know whether or not we were paying. My hunch was that if there was any dispute on such ridiculous charges, there could be trouble. And of course, you better tip your dancer.
No horror story... just be prepared to sink a lot of cash in a short period of time. There may have been ways around this, but as a novice to TJ, I didn't want to risk becoming one of the infamous TJ jail stories. The experience was only bad from a financial viewpoint because we were only there about 15 minutes and dropped over $60 (because you have to tip your dancers, too). Only bonus is the policies are otherwise very liberal, but I'm guessing that was only because we kept coughing up the cash very quickly! Leave a Comment Theme: Adult Spot

| | | | Avenida Revolucion: THE PARTY PLACE | Tip Rating: | | | | |
If you are looking for a place to party all night long Tijuana is definitely the place and Avenida Revolucion is the perfect spot for this. Avenida Revolucion is a street that is filled with clubs, bars, restaurants and shops. There is nothing like partying all night and then stopping by a little taco stand and getting five tacos for a dollar. If you go to Tijuana you just have to try a shooter at a club, I could try to explain the tecnique of the shoooter but you just have to try it yourself :-) O.K. I know I'm going to get questions about this so I will try my best to describe it. Let's say you want to buy a shooter for a friend, you just go up to the waiter walking around the club with a bottle and a whistle and you tell him what you want. Let's say it's for a girl. He will approach her from behind, without her knowing, and tip her chair back. He will gently hold her head back and pour tequila into her mouth. He will then proceed to put his hands over her mouth and shake her head a few times while whistling his whistle. He will then grab her and throw her over his shoulders and head to the middle of the dance floor or wherever he can find a free spot and turn round and round a few times with her on his shoulder. After he makes sure that she can't take any more he will go ahead and set her down. I know it sounds weird but that has been the thing to do there. Let's say that I've had my share of shooters. I am sorry but I don't have any digital pictures of this. This is what we did in my younger years, way before the digital camera era :-) I will try to scan some when time permits. There is never a dull moment at Avenida Revolucion. Of course one of the most famous mementos of Tijuana is to have your picture on the donkey cart ( they will have the donkey painted with stripes to make it look like a zebra) with a big Mexican sombrero.
You can wear just about anything here but I would hardly suggest that if you are a female and plan on wearing a skirt to go pary you might want to consider wearing shorts underneath just in case someone surprises you with a shooter..
DIRECTIONS:
I will try my best to describe how to get there from the last trolley stop in San Ysidro. I don't know street names so this will be a backwoods person kind of directions. When you get off the trolley head towards the right where you see a walkway leading to a bridge. I don't remember if they have signs pointing to it or not. You will go up the walkway and cross the overpass leading to the other side of the street, you are actually crossing over the border passing for vehicles which is the freeway. When you get to the other side keep heading towards your right and you will get to the gate to cross the border. You will go through two gates and you are in Mexico. Go to the end of that walkway and take a right at the end. You will go through an erea where all the Taxis park, they will offer to take to to the Avenida, if you are not a walker take it but it's not too far of a walk. If you head straight down that street you will cross a street and then a shopping center with various bars and stores. Keep going straight until you get to stairs leading to another bridge, cross the bridge and you will come on to a little bazzar kind of place. Keep going straight and go up that street, it will come to a V and you will take the street to your left, keep going and you will run into Avenida Revolucion, trust me you can't miss it. You will know you are there when you get there. This is the best that I can do, I hope it helps.
