That was in 2004, that part of his character wasn't out until later.Originally Posted by FritoBandito
Maybe he had to go to the DR to reassert his manhood, because he had to do a lot of gay stuff playing that role in the movie. Like blowing the nightwatchman at the construction site, and offering his ass in bed to his gay fireman lover....lol...
I hope he wasn't a "method actor" when it came to that part!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's not a good sign. I hope he gets that place going. It has some potential.

I think a good business niche for the Hideaway is to get some big screen TVs and have a sports bar atmosphere (at least for football and basketball season). Lou's, for the past coupkle of years, was the only place to watch a game in town.
The rest of the year they can show pornos on TV, with naked female bartenders manning the bar...........

One thing NOONE in Sosua seems to have thought of yet, is a TOP LESS bar.. and the hideway is perfect for it, since its not visible from the street at all.
Not Nude, just TOP LESS.. done classy.. and Not a STRIP joint, just topless. And what would be better than a TOP less SPORTS BAR.. with Finger Foods and Nachos...etc
You definitely need the food. and maybe some drink specials to draw them in, but once guys KNOW there are always topless bartenders in there, it will become a regular stop .
No matter how many putas are walking the strip, a TOP less bar would always get me to go in and check out whats happening and get warmed up for the night to come.
And you know the girls would be making Tips like crazy.

I thought of that but, as was pointed out to me, it is located right next to a school and that probably would not fly with the powers in charge or church folk.

Sounds like a great idea until you start looking around. Every other bar has done this in the last year....BIG SCREENS. Rumba, Merengue, Rocky's, Britannia Pub, Scotch and Sirlion, Jolly Roger and even Hideaway. You can't make a living here depending on a few sport fanatics to come and watch the games. People keep mentioning Lou's and how many people went there to watch the game....so why is he closed? Eddies Sports Bar....closed. People go to there favourite bar and watch there favourite sport on whatever tv the bar has....21" tube, 42 LCD or big screen projector. It's about the food and the atmosphere much more than the big screen.I think a good business niche for the Hideaway is to get some big screen TVs and have a sports bar atmosphere (at least for football and basketball season).

It can work .I go to Caberete to watch games on Sunday paying high ass prices.

Why do you go to Cabarete? what do they have that the other bars in Sosua don't? the only thing I see different in Cabarete is that Kahuna's has Direct TV which no bar in Sosua has mostly because of the hassle of having the big ass dish. Other than that, the other bars in Cabarete offer the same viewing....no?

Eddy's Sports Bar has been a mystery to me for years. When I first went down to Sosua, I stopped in. Saw all the wall posters and decorations for various sports teams, the tv's, the large bar and all the room with tables and chairs. I thought that this place was a night time hub.
I never saw more than 3-4 people in there, even at night. I met Eddy a couple of times and he told me that when he owned it, it was a great place to hang out for the night. He sold it to whoever and it never had the same status. Since it is about midway down a residential street and not on a main drag, location could be a major issue for that.
It seems that for the people who live there, once they find a spot or two that they like, that has a nice atmosphere, some chica scenery, good value for food and drink, they stick to going to those same joints, regardless of whether a new place opens. Once the curiosity stage is over with a new spot, if it doesn't measure up to the old tried and true places, it gets passed on by.

It never seemed to me to have the one main component needed to attract a male clientele; chicas. I stopped in a few times during my early days but it just never seemed to have "atmosphere".

If your bar isn't on Pedro Clisante, it seems to be overlooked by most tourist people, no matter how good it is........

No doubt, you need the passing foot traffic to get your place of business in the public eye. There happens to be several bars that I enjoy going to along Alejo Martinez, the Don Andres hotel bar, a couple of small bars down that hill, Spankys and Bar Esperanza, and further down Martinez toward the Coco, there is a Dominican hangout, I think it's called Smitty Sports Bar or something like that, that I stop in. I have even been invited to shoot pool with a group of Dominican guys who were there drinking beer, listening to the music and having a good time. There was always a few chicas at the bar.
And of course the Coco Hotel bar is a cool place. These bars are nice, low key, good value and so forth, but I agree, without a lot of chicas in general, they are normally overlooked by most people. I venture to them to simply take a break from hanging on PC all night.
But, there are some nice girls that stop in these places and with even a small knowledge of spanish, the atmosphere is good for some pleasant conversation and low pressure late night negotiations.
