Last night I walked down to La Tropa one of the few bars I hadn't visited in La Zona, there were not allot of people on the street ... it was a long, dark, I could understand why people would be hesitant to make the walk. When I arrived there were a few girls in the bar and a girl dancing, I had a beer talked to a few of the girls working there and I was impressed with thier attitudes, they seemed 'genuine'. Well after recharging I was going to head back to AB or CC for another round. As I was walking (in the street)... just before the first block a guy stands up between two cars and says something to me (I didn't understand him) and he scared the piss out of me ... my answere was my canned "no gracias" and his reply was "no give me your money" Now I've heard of guys getting mugged and beaten up usually by 2 or three people working together... and I'm not likely to be any ones first choice in targets so I'm looking to see if anyone else is around... as to which way I should run... as he stepps out between the cars i see he has a broken bottle in his hand, well he did for about a second at least... it was short business one kick, bottle gone, second to the side of his head third square in the face ( as he laid on the ground ) then I ran like a M'F'. I thought my heart was going to fly out of my chest... any ways I gathered my composre as I rounded the corner to CC got in a cab and got out of Dodge. While sitting in the cab I thought to myself 1. Stupid you should know better walking around alone.. follow your gut feeling 2. Damn I only got off one nut tonight 3. I'm not going down south solo any more 4. Damn I only got off one nut tonight 5. I could have been bleeding to death on that street right now and know one would have even known I was in TJ 6. Damn I only got off one nut tonight 7. i'm actually crossing back over the border with $ in my pocket 8. Damn I only got off one nut tonight 9. Should I have gone to the cops... no it would just be trouble for me... 10. . Damn I only got off one nut tonight You may think I'm joking around but that was actually what I was thinking while in the caab. My recomendation.... walk with the guy handing out the flyers.... I will go back to La Tropa but it will be under much difforent circimstances. |
