There used to be a large brothel/bar/hotel called "Black Angus" in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico. Cruise ships docked not far away. On any given day, there could be 4 or 5 cruise ships in port. When the ships docked, officers and crew would come running--yes, running down the gangway and run all the way down to Black Angus. All the taxis were full of men racing down to Black Angus, hence, you would see men--who could not find a taxi--jogging down the street to the brothel. I was saw our staff captain running as if he was in a Marathon, on the way to the brothel.
Black Angus had an oval bar which seated about 20 or 25 people. every seat would be taken and the girls--numbering 30 or 40--would cruise around the bar talking to officers and crew. when you found one you liked, you went upstairs to the motel and got a room for $15 dollars. Off duty Puerto Rican police were everywhere--upstairs, in the parking lot, at the entrance. they kept the place secure.
Me and some of the entertainment staff--singers, dancers, etc. would sit nearby--across from the ships--and watch people sprint past on their way to the brothel. i took bets who would reach the brothel first and who would collapse and have a coronary on their way there. Some ships have a lot of overweight officers.
I was skinny at the time. I could run fast.
