The last time that I was in Subic City was 1988 when I was stationed at Subic Bay with A Company Marines. You only went to Subic City for one thing back then and wow, it sure does look different nowadays which is to be expected. As Marines, when we went to the field at Green or Red Beach, the girls from Subic City were brought over in boats for some nighttime bush bunny action.
I used to take the Marines out to Green and Red Beach in LCM 6 and 8 Boats, we called them Mike Boats I remember we could buy soft drinks on the Beach from the kids I sure miss those days
Hi James oh yes we used to play Smiles at Marilyn's back in the day it was great because the AFP or Shore Patrol did not go there, those Marines did some crazy stuff but what happened in Subic City stayed in Subic City it's so different now not worth the trip there from Magsaysay Drive
I miss the old days in Subic City. Back when there was no paved road. I used to go to the "Miami ( supper) Club " as it was called back then. But my primary hangout was "HIGH TIMES INN" , across from the Jupiter club and right next door to "Easy Riders". Easy Riders, was the first place I ever "barfined" . But I had a sort of steady gal from High Times. But I also visited Marilyns, Sweet Sixteen, Jupiter, Blue Diamond and International bar. Hight Times was eventually built up to a 3 story building. Had to be careful of the stairs!! lol,,,. Momasan, Gloria used to sleep on the pool table on the second deck. Ah,,,those were indeed,,,,the days!!!!!
I use to Rent 3 Homes for Only $40.00 Each Monthly in Olongapo City. I was a Stationed "A" Co. Marine Barracks Guard Sentry. I Worked All the Gates on the Subic Bay Naval Base back in the 70's. Checking i.d.'s, Checking for Bombs, Black Marketing items, etc. I did my first Jungle Training in the Jungles of the P.I.
Thanks! Lots of memories, and many lost. Eagles was my hangout in '85-'88, it used to be across the street from the place on the 2nd floor. I had my laundry done there during rainy season and they hung the clothes in that walkway to the bay and had a small fire going. My clothes smelled like a house fire haha.
Spent some time there as a Marine while on the USS Durham during the Gulf War 90-91! Loved Barrio the most however. A few times while in port Subic was off limits for us.
thank you Johnny I was born in Olongapo my dad was in marines and my mom was filipino last time we there in 1972 but my dad was stationed in oceanside ca. that last we in phippines in 1972
Its sad to think of all the families who dont eat now because of the bars that have closed. So many girls supporting families in the province cant earn money. Its a travesty.
Thank you so much Johnny, I have been to many parties at the Miami Hotel, it is sad to see how the Place finished up. I hope Barretto comes good again in the coming year, but Calabandayan was good for us old Ex-Pats for Bar-Hops because it was about a 10 Minutes Ride away from home (Barretto and the Wife's) (:
Spent a lot of time there in the 70s and 80s. Maryland ,Sealords and Miami were my favs. Also hung out at the dog patch back in the day. is White rock even still there, damn near drowned a honey co there once.
Used to go out there in '75-'76. Muff Diver's Inn was owned by a one-legged American ex-pat (or was he one-armed?) Anyway, they had a pool table and the chili wasn't too bad. It was a lot quieter back then, probably less than a dozen bars and more laid back than Olongapo with great sunsets over the bay.
Some wierd stuff used to go on in Kinky's I liked the foxhole better if I remember correctly it was owned by a guy from Mexico but I could be wrong I did not like Eagles because it was on the 2nd floor and I tried to avoid Stairs
My first time in Marilyn's was 1985 and it was a mine blowing experience. Used to drink beer in a place called: "Hole in the wall" close to the shit river bridge.
Been there done that Hole in the Wall was an open air bar on Right side as we were going off base my next stop after Hole in the Wall was the California Club on Magsaysay Drive We used to play Smiles at Marilyn's now those was the good old Days complete with the shows such as the Peso Show, Smoking Pu**y, Banana Cutter so many more hard to remember
Back in the early to mid 80s, I used to frequent a small bar on Rizal Ave. In Olongapo. It was named The Fur Trader. Does anyone have any information as to whatever became of that bar? I got some photos & alot of memories of that place.
Goto face book look up groups. Like Subic or navy in Philippines etc you may find some interesting places and friends you can also upload and download load pictures..good luck..take care brother..😊
If i'm not mistaken Magsaysay Blvd. was in the Book of World Records for the Most Night Clubs on One Street, and it was also called the City of Neon Lights that were all over the Place on Night Clubs! I use to watch Bands Play in those Clubs Weekly!, or Nightly! Great Bands, and Music! Nice People!
I was there in '72. Very dangerous place then. The criminals ran the place. They used every angle to get your money: drugs, prostitutes, and outright thievery. As soon as you left your ship, while still on the base, people would approach you with some sob story, taking advantage of the first time sailors, with the intention of separating you from your money. After awhile, you hated the place, or you just got so drunk you didn't care anymore. As much as being on the ship could be very depressing, you did it anyway rather than go into town. Besides all of that, racial tensions were making going into town even worse. A few times I had to be escorted by concerned business owners passed a group of blacks intent on violence. Nice to see that all of that is gone.
My 1st time in Philippines was 1972 and it was not so bad at the end of 1972 something like November or December because it was Martial.Law then with a midnight curfew but in 73 things got better
I was at NavComSta Phil from 70 thru 72. Spent at lot of time and money at Subic City, we hardly ever went to Olongopo ........San Miguel beer, Oanoong sarap
In 73&74 I used to hang out in the Blue Diamond and Virgo club. Don't see them in this video. Went back in 1980 hadn't changed too much then but sure looks different today.
I dont know how to tell you but 1966-67 this area was nothing but rice fields and nipa huts LOL. If you ordered a San Magoo one had to read the label . If it said Manila you looked at the bottom for mud . If it said Philippines it was OK to drink LOL
Was stationed on the Sterett… chief had a bar in barrio baretto called joyz R Us… any chance you can find the location? Do a video on it? Might be worth a couple San Magoos… Salamat..
What was the primary contribution (in your opinion) to a lack of customers to those bars to point that they had to shutdown? Is it because one of the military bases closed?
I am retired US Navy. I am thinking of selling every thing and move to Asia in the next year or two. Of course I need to visit every where and decide where to go. Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!!

That was Pauline's that had the alligator you could buy baby chicks and feed the Alligator but then the Marines and a few Navy guys started biting the heads off the baby Chicks The Club called Pauline's caught fire in 1976 or something like that not a total loss but sometimes in the late 80's the club closed never to reopen

I was an "A" Co. Marine there also back in 1978.
As sad as it is it’s nice to see the old haunts. If any of the girls I knew back then they would be pushing 60 by now.
I was thinking the same thing……loo
lol
Maybe the granddaughter might look like you..😊
I feel like I’m looking at my own ghost. Stationed there Feb 1975 - Dec 1976. Then again for six months in 1979.

Thanx John. Really enjoy hearing about the 60's in P.I.
Same in the 70's stayed away from the SMB from Manila
MID 60s, SUBIC CITY WAS COMPLETELY OUTOF BOUNDS,,,I HAD MY CAR AND MOTORCYCLE, SO I WAS THERE A LOT
Subic City in the 70's was pretty good
Was stationed on the Sterett… chief had a bar in barrio baretto called joyz R Us… any chance you can find the location? Do a video on it? Might be worth a couple San Magoos… Salamat..
The bar is long gone but will check if anyone remembers it
Does anybody remember the General Custer Super Club? I was there 1975-76. Lots of memories.
My favorite was California Club, Jolos New Florida Club Mariposa Chicken by the Sea Bosun Locker Pauline's Marilyn's
I remember a girl in a Subic bar who used to say "you want tulo, i give you tulo".
What was the primary contribution (in your opinion) to a lack of customers to those bars to point that they had to shutdown? Is it because one of the military bases closed?
I would say they closed because of the US Navy left it was a long time before the Virus
Bet those bars walls could tell some tells if walls could talk lol
Don’t believe anything they say about me. It’s all lies.
Wow, what a run down dump .. Always the last stop on the crazy train ..
definitely road a lot of Taxis there but like most places in the world those guys will squeeze every xtra cent out of you if your not careful...
Interesting video. I wou;ld say half the taxi drivers there are dishonest. INCLUDING Grab drivers.
Oh yeah wanted you to pay for insurance trike drivers Lmao!

Why would a business owner want a bar on the 2nd floor? Imagine all the drunks traversing the steps.
I usually would avoid steps when I drank
I believe you, Johnny. don't want broken bones.
Yes, we were all hyper sensitive about safety in the PO. Roflmfao
That looks like a war zone in Syria!!! Which road is it, not Barreto I take it?
