It varies from bar to bar. X-boys is 800, Dreamboys I think is 500, but I think BoyzBoyzBoyz is more expensive though.

Are you sure the off fee at X Boys is 800bt? That sounds oddly high for that bar.

I think I was the first to report this, in December 2023, if I'm not wrong. I had just observed a small argument between an unhappy customer and a mamasan. A few minutes later, I asked two mamasans (separately) what their off fee was and was given the same figure of 800 baht. After that, Vinapu and others got the same information from the bar independently.

You are correct. 800bt. I messaged the mamasan to ask.

What, do you reckon, would the lower-end gogo bars (girls) charge for a barfine? Any clue if the bar gives a cut of that to the borrowed girl? If not, how do you think such a rate developed?

This may partly explain why BoyzBoyzBoyz is reaching for 1,050 baht.

Agree.

Spoke with a non-member who visited BoyzBoyzBoyz last night with a friend. Reports that it was packed, including many female Asian customers.  Guys on stage all in street clothes. 

Judging by observations voiced elsewhere, this place seems to be best attended boy bar in Pattaya. It owes its success to a show that its audience demands and can command top of market off fees.

Friend said other Boystown bars didn't seem that busy around 10p.m.

Interesting.

I spoke with an ex-BBB stage guy who told me that he left BBB because there was little to no off action by the existing customers - as the new customer base just wants you to sit and drink with them.  You still earn money but nowhere near like before when the BBB off fee was more reasonable.

He told me that now most of the fully clothed guys are not interested to be taken off my us old farangs.

Because most of us forum members (including me) are isolated in an English-speaking corner, we may be unaware of any chatter in Chinese forums. I have a suspicion that there is considerable word-of-internet-mouth in those forums, maybe including Korean and Japanese too, about BoyzBoyzBoyz and Fresh Boys in Bangkok which also draws a significant number of Chinese tourists. What is a mystery to me is whether the interest in these bars came from marketing publicity that these bars themselves initiated in these languages or if it grew organically because some early visitors became "influencers" in their native language forums.

Once female visitors become the target market, the bar obviously has to change its product offer from selling sex to merely selling titillation and entertainment.

I'm not surprised that the roster of boys would have changed too, to those who are 100% straight, only interested in girls, and maybe slightly revolted by the idea of even touching another man. These would be the boys who have no interest in earning money from gay men; they'd sacrifice that extra income just for the thrill of flashing their body parts to girls every night and getting half-soused. Don't every one of us know of this type? The super-straight jock-wannabe?
