Captain's review of Checker's Pub
I love the unorthodox and the unconventional & the not-so-popular & a little dangerous! This led me to "investigate" Checker's pub on Friday evening.
My story:
ARRIVAL TIME: Friday evening / Sat morning at 3 am.
ENTRY: No pimps outside the gate. Casual entry walking inside. No entry fees! Came walking here. Its always best to enter a new club (your first time there) on foot than arrive in a taxi.
FIRST IMPRESSION: That of shock! Its forte is that it caters to those men who are looking for women their mother's OR grandmother's age. Their were many women in age group of 55 plus.
DRINKS: I had a Rum with cola, cost 40 pesos. I found it higher compared to other low end clubs.
LADIES DRINK: Its for 70 pesos. Again found it a bit high as compared to other low end clubs.
HOSTILITY / DANGERS: None at all. You can safely enjoy a drink there without feeling hassled. Though women do come to you to ask if they could join you. However, if you politely refuse, they go away without creating any tantrums.
MUSIC : Horrible
QUALITY OF WOMEN: Almost 90% women there were above 50 years old. However, interestingly, there were about 5 women very young and very hot but working as bartenders. These 5 women were like 7 or a 8 or a 9. The older women looked their age and I didn't find them attractive at all in any possible way.
QUANTITY OF WOMEN: Close 16 or 18.
CLIENTS: Close to 10 odd. Most of the guys were like 60 plus. However, I also saw two or three mid 20 local Argentine guys wooing the older women.
PRICE OF CHICAS: The older women were quoting 150 ARS. However, maybe you could bring them down to 100ARS. However, since the clientele is largely older men possibly with money, these women could be easily getting 150 ARs or more.
I was very attracted to the younger chicas particularly, the only "9" there. Well she quoted 450ARS and wouldn't budge from that price. I feel that the owner has kept the younger girls to be eye candy there and work as bartenders and don't want them to be taken out, unless price is very very high. Thats the only reason, I could see for quoting such a high price and not ready to bring it down even marginally.
DID I TAKE A GIRL FROM THERE?
No, I did not. Though I would have loved to take out this "9".
WOULD I GO THERE AGAIN?
No, never as I am not into older women and drinks are very expensive for a club of its quality.
WOULD I RECOMMEND IT?
Well, if you are in BA for first time. Then going to club forms a important part of your learning experience. Go here only if you are in to older women OR just to have a interesting night out at a club of this sort. Don't go here expecting to get hot chicas at 150 ARS.
Enjoy BA
