There is a diffence between the government fining an establishment for allowing shagging on the premises, and a yakuza dude fining an unsuspecting customer 1 million yen without the matter going throught the "proper" channels (if they exist)
I have been in pinkies and seen rules on the wall but cannot recall a mention of a fine for transgressing them. A 1 million yen fine seems a lot - 30 bucks and a nut says the girl encouraged it and she got part of the fine back in commission
The fact this joint was in Kabukicho makes me think that. I have seen on TV guys who went into a regular hostess bar in Kabukicho and been presented with a tab for that much, then marched down the ATM by yakusa heavies to pay it off
But at the end of the day all speculation is meaningless bcoz it wont change the outcome. The yakuza r a law into themselves in the joints they run and no 2 joints r exactly the same.
The warning that this could happen is a good one and many thanx for you chappies 4 bringing it up
. Next time in Strawberry Jam I will ask to see the rules (they showed me a card 1 split second but assumed I couldnt read it and put it away)
The next time I see one of my regular BBBJ consultant therapists which most likely will b this weekend, I will bring up this topic and report back on what they said
U cant beat asking the people who know
