Klong Toi Bars

[ChiefBEM]

Sorry I do not know how to spell Klong Toi but was wandering if the area still has the old tough sailor bars.

I remember the Mosquito Bar and the Tiger Bar.

The Mosquito Bar was not a good place to be unless you had 20 or 30 of your good fighting friends with you.

The front of the Tiger Bar was actually a large tiger's head.

It was not a painting.

The head was made of cement/mortor and extended out the front of the building.

You walked in the tiger's mouth under the teeth to get to the door.

The smoke (concha/mary jane) was so thick you culd barely see a foot in front of you.

If you did not smoke you still got high in 15 or 20 minutes just from the 2nd hand smoke.

Does anyone remember these bars or know if they still exist?

Thanks.

I checked and the bars I mentioned no longer exist there.
