Hey mongers, going down to TJ April 3-5. It’ll be my 3rd time so I feel like I know the ropes by now. As many, always tired of the lady drinks that you end up paying for during your stay. Is getting a bottle worth it in the club? If so, is there anyone that happens to be going down that weekend interested in meeting up and splitting a bottle with me? I’m 32M, living in SF, jets fan (rip), Knicks fan, well traveled, looking for some cool but debauchurous people to hang with :D

I have noticed that they drink much slower if they a) have a good shot at going upstairs with me or b) if I feed them a few $ tips very soon into the ficha session. They only make a dollar or 2 from a drink, so human nature if they can make that faster by being heavily groped by me they will usually take that option.
About 6 months ago, was down there with some amigos and their chicas. There were 4 chicas and 3 of us in a booth ordering bottles. 2 of the 4 chicas were on the clock working while the other 2 were not. So the mesero would make our mixed tequila drink or pour shots for everyone but the 2 chicas working. One bottle was like $150.
For the two HK chicas working, we had to buy them ficha drinks still and they weren't supposed to have drinks from the bottle.
It was interesting because I never noticed but our waiter pointed out the floor managers that were out there monitoring if chicas were getting improper drinks and other things. They were not dressed like a waiter yet once you see them you can notice them looking around in the area of their responsibility. He pointed him out so we could all enjoy the bottle when he wasn't looking or busy. We didn't really care to circumvent the rule and weren't going to be bothered playing the game of sneak the drinks but sometimes it is easier to just get a drink that is at the table already so we would order fichas as well as just give them a few sips or shots.
We had a great night and we ended up ordering 3 bottles but were in the club for 6-7 hours yet I still had to buy fichas in my experience although at a much slower rate.
The math even being conservative not counting the 2 chicas working was 3 bottles ($150) x 3 / 5 people / 6 hours = $15 an hour per person.
I would say we purchased about 2 fichas per hour for each of the 2 chicas. They ended up getting hammered because my friend said I fed them from the bottle too much and still had ficha drinks so they costed about $22/hr for each chica.
What is not mentioned here is tips. With bottle service and other services we requested, tips are much more than a $1.
I hope this helps.
In general, the girls won’t drink from your bottle (unless it’s a ficha bottle.) they’re basically in it for the money which they make off of a ficha drink.
