I;m still recovering slightly from last night, which was the closing of the 1st Annual Saigon Beer Festival. After bargaining the guy at the door down from the absurd entrance price of 400,000 VND I got in and found myself in a quasi-nightclub/bar where about 25 different kinds of beer were on offer. Also there were:
- Many many English teachers (and Westerners of all kinds)
- a Filipino cover band
- pool and foosball tables
- Chasids
The last were having a spot of trouble as they were unable to eat any of the food avialable, which was invariably of the fried and Bratwurst variety, and so had to down their beers without the consolation of calories. Unluckily, I forgot my new tailored shirt in the cab on the ride over. It only cost $20 but I really liked it and now I gotta go make another one.

I'm surprised that you could bargain an entrance fee. They can't possibly take the time to do that with everyone who comes. Did you have the shirt made at Tricia and Veronica, the place where I got my jacket?
I think I was able to bargain because it was the last day and only 2 1/2 hours from closing, so they figured if they didn't sell it nobody else would come by.
The shirt was from Tricia and Veronica's, but ironically enough I was wearing it and so forgot a cheaper tailored shirt I got from somewhere else.
right, i'm putting that link back, i thought oyu had a rude picture...
