British Tourist Beaten by Thai Bar Girls Over Unpaid Bill

A British tourist in Pattaya was beaten and thrown out of a bar after refusing to pay his bill, which included a 50% markup on drinks for the women he and his friend were entertaining. Furious bar staff and women attacked him with high heels, slapping and kicking him while demanding payment. Bleeding from a head wound, the man pleaded for mercy, but a bar manager ordered him out, shouting insults. A bystander tried to calm the situation before he was forced to leave. Pattaya, known for its raucous nightlife, has a history of similar incidents.

this is becoming too common.

places advertise drink prices but neglect to mention lady drinks cost double or even triple and it applies to everything in the bar. there is no just buying a girl a drink anymore.

go into a place order a couple 100  baht Heineken, and another for a woman, and get a bill for 1000 baht.

 

places I used to stop in for a quick drink in Bangkok are now no go zones because the bills skyrocket so fast it is impossible not to blow through few thousand baht an hour and leave sober
