Drug Problems In Mexico
For those kids living in Southern California (I prefer to call it SOCAL), we all grew up during our prepubescent years hearing rumors of a fantasy world where you can drink under the age of 21. It was a place where lawlessness is common and if you’re lucky, you might be able to catch a DONKEY SHOW. You can live out all your fantasies in this one incredible place, thought to have existed only in Tommy Lee’s METHODS OF MAYHEM song lyrics. The next morning, it’s not extra ordinary to wake up in a random hotel room next to a girl named STARLA while the VENGABOYS is bumping in the background. You stink of Jose Cuervo, which was pumped down your throat by some dude named Luis with a whistle in his mouth.
I personally was never fascinated by these stories. They sounded horrific to tell you the truth. It sounded like a really big high school party with no sign of parents anywhere. But that’s just because I didn’t realize how fun they were until later on.
The footage below is a glimpse of what my friend Adam and I experienced in some random bar in TJ. This wasn’t one of those bars on REVOLUTION ST. either so that meant not as many tourists. We were on or way down to Mexico City but decided to stop by TJ to visit some friends first. While the drug problem still runs rampant today, this video took place during the early stages of cracking down on the Mexican drug trade. This was around the time when dead bodies of Federali’s were popping up everywhere. Sad thing is, they still are.
The AFI’s would randomly search local bars and clubs by abruptly cutting the music while their dogs sniff out drugs. And as a word of advice, don’t try to pet the dogs and tell them how cute they are. The AFI will rough you up just as they did me.
