The well-liked redlight district blogger (and “sexpat”) Stickboy has left Thailand, apparently as a end result of lack of nightlife over the previous two years. Stickboy, whose actual name is Mike McKay, has been a very long time expat in Thailand. Secret calls himself a “party animal with hole legs” and is thought for his posts of busty ladies combined in with common data on Thailand… especially on the bar scene.
On Mike’s Twitter bio, he said “Time for something new… South America maybe.” He says he’s left Thailand for good, and “no,” don’t worry, he hasn’t had a severe mental breakdown. Mike informed Coconuts Bangkok stated it was actually the continued postponement of the reopening of bars and nightclubs that led to his decision to depart.
Bars and nightclubs have been closed since April, but additionally faced closure orders early on in the pandemic. Bangkok’s booming nightlife districts have been dark and quiet. Nine months in the past, Mike made a post on his website Stickboybkk.com with a photograph of Soi Cowboy, a popular redlight district. All the bars were closed. The lights off.
He wrote…
Yes, there’s no denying it is a sad sight to see the Neon Alley wanting like this but will most likely be again quickly and the nice times can roll once more.
With vaccine rollouts all over the world picking up momentum and Thailand getting ready for mass inoculations, there could be gentle at the finish of this Covid tunnel.
Now, life has come again to Soi Cowboy and different nightlife districts. But it’s not the identical. Healthcare workers in personal protective gear stand at the entrance of the road with speedy antigen kits to test partygoers on the spot. And bars within the capital should close by 9pm. He advised Coconuts that with the restrictions and delays to fully reopen bars, he decided to “f**k it” and go away..
