An American Japanese in Tokyo

,

The restaurant with the small door.

 

You had to crawl to get in. I guess they didn't think we were going to tip well so they provided the equipment so we could take care of ourselves (you are not supposed to tip in Japan)

Later I got dragged into several clubs like the Infamous “Gas Panic” which sounds to me like something that happens when you have digestive trouble and 911 another place I had been to before.  The clubs were packed to the hilt. And a lot of the guys I was with were hooking up with some of the local girls.  I also noticed that some of the girls seemed too friendly.  Even though these were not hostess bars where you pay big bucks to have a drink with a pretty girl, there appeared to be a big Russian guy working several hot girls in a corner.  They were trying to get guys to buy them bottles of expensive Champagne and stuff.  Like in Vegas, if something seems too good to be true it usually is.

Roppongi is the nighttime entertainment district and a favorite haunt for foreigners.  You can meet people from all over the world here.

There are several floors worth of night spots here.  I think the cheaper and less legal ones may be upstairs

 

The garage from F&F III, well at least it looked like it.  There are  many like this all over the place.

By this time I had realized that Jared had given me his cold and I was feeling pretty ill.  I wanted to leave but other in my group wanted to party.  I decided to catch a cab to the hotel but while I was walking thru Roppongi I was accosted by many girls asking me if I wanted some action.  I was offered everything from a “sexy massage” to a “happy ending”.  This got my curiosity piqued so I asked one girl how much her services were.  She told me I could get a happy ending for 3000 yen (about $30).  I told her that that was pretty cheap and a good deal.  Somehow I think that I pissed her off because she gave me a dirty look and ran off.  Somehow I didn't think my prior trips to Japan had so many professionals working the clubs and night spots.

Arriving at my hotel I was walking to my room when a well dressed conservative looking mature woman in a business suit struck up a conversation while I pursued buying a phone card from a vending machine.  By mature I mean like 60 years old.  I was worried why this random woman would strike up a conversation with me at this hour of the night. She asked me if I wanted a sexy massage!  I told her that my wife who I was waiting for might mind and she ran off.  That was the weirdest encounter I have ever had with a woman to date.  All of this was depressing.  I had never been hit up by professionals before in my life, especially not one that could be my mom.  I must be getting ugly and desperate looking as I get older.  I hoped I was not getting mistaken for an aging Camera Boy.

Jared's side of the room, his stuff seems to explode everywhere
