Is This Your Business?
 

Smaller booths, but very dark and private.the booths in the middle of the isle of this place are separated by some special electric frosted window, which is made clear when both parties in each booth press a switch, veeeeery nice!, you can see the other person in the other booth jack off and he can see you. 12/02/04 A cruiser reports: Buddy Booths are large and pretty busy. Reasonably clean. Mostly hispanic crowd. Very few gay movies, and the guys at the counter are cool if you keep money in the machines. A reasonable amount of cruising between the hours of 3pm and 11pm. Hit or miss at other times.

  • Anyone been there lately? I was there a couple of weeks ago and they had all of the good booths taped off, and there was big Hispanic Guys walking around with a flashlight harassing people. Has things changed? Or is it hit or miss depending on who's working. The guy with the broken leg ( in a cast) seemed to be cool... Let me know!

  • ReallyOral. this place always has action. always busy .. but some of the guys may not always be hot. Sometimes there is only one hot dude, or a couple or none but always busy. In relation to downtown. it is on the East side of downtown LA. between the 10fwy and the 105 fwy on ALAMEDA - cross street would be FIrestone. It is 85 percent Latin guy who go there.. and then a (10percent) few black guys and asian.. then.. 3 percent white (usually the heavier white guys) - occassional a hot white kid or guy.

  • It is hit or miss now and then... There is some hot action going on there best time is after work and early mornings.The late night crowd are cheap and tend to lurk around and just hold up booths. The police do roll up. I was sitting in my car getting my wallet ... when I heard a knock on my window... They placed me in the back of the cop car and asked me a bunch of questions. They checked out my car for a good 15 minutes and after seeing I was clean they let me go. When I went in to the shop they grabbed another guy coming out of the store. When the cops are in the area the shop workers do yell so the hypes that are doing drugs can stop lighting up in the booths. Be safe just watch out for the sheriffs they are very homophobic.

  • look guys i'm in my early 30's like 32, i look younger than i am, i'm wht., blonde and a very fit good looking guy. i wallked to my car and for no reason the cops rolled up on me got me out of the car, searched my car which is a middle of the road car and the next thing i know i'm in lynwood jail for 2 days and now i'm doing 18 days of cal trans for a pipe that wasnt even used. They took me in for being under the influence and i really was under the influence of g so i got in trouble for the wrong thing and since i refused the test they got me for parafanalia and the piece wasnt even used, go figure! i would just stay away from there, they are just looking for something and anyone. the cop was actually cool after a minute and told me that they want the drug dealing to stop out of there and even though they had nothing on me, they wrote up a dandy of a police report.

  • I have seen plenty of nice cars coming in and out of that parking lot. I just don't buy the story on getting put in the police car for nothing. Something else had to have happened for that to occur. Of course the majority are latino guys but I have seen a fair share of other races too. I also have seen the cops here a few times but there just busting someone for drugs, nothing related to the arcade....There's always an older black guy lurking outside this place but I just give him a buck and say keep an eye out on my ride lol

    Now about the arcade itself, I have seen some guys just chilling in doorways of the booths or just sitting in them with no money, naturally security will have something to say about it so feed the machine or go chill in a non hole booth...

  • Ive been here on weekend nights and it seems like there are guys working as security NONUNIFORMED. They just say something if anyone is standing around not putting money in the booths. I have heard them tell a few guys to put money in or get out!!

  • that is weird, crazy weird. i have gone to this place a bunch of times, and i am typical, blonde, white, surf kid and never have had a problem. I have seen other young dudes go there who are white also.. but true, it is 75 percent minorities (latin mostly) then black, white then asian but yea, mostly latin.

  • You don't know much about the police if you think that you have to be doing something to be thrown in the back of a police car. They have done far worse than that to gay men. haha

    I HAVE NEVER SEEN THE BACK OF A POLICE CAR BEFORE!

    THEY THEN BUSTED OTHERS IN THE PARKING LOT FOR DRUGS AND LET ME GO SINCE I WAS DOING NOTHING WRONG!

  • DO NOT GO! IF YOU ARE WHITE AND HAVE A NEW CAR, DO NOT GO. I SPENT AN HOUR IN THE BACK OF A POLICE CAR, MISTREATED, NOT TOLD WHY THEY PUT ME THERE AND THEN SAID THAT IF THEY EVER SAW ME OR MY CAR IN THAT PART OF TOWN THEY'D ARREST ME.

    THEY SAID "this isn't west hollywood or wherever you come from, someone will put a gun to your head for your car"

    NEVER AGAIN!

  • This doesn't bode well for the place. I was in there earlier tonight and every other booth with a gh between it was taped off. This may be the end of the gh's.

    Commented on 11/14/2008 4:11:50 AM

     
  • Bob,
    We have talked about this on this post. IT just means the machine is broken or it needs the money taken out of it. What usually happens. They don't take out the money at night, for security reasons. I think they only do it once a day. But what happens is that the glory hole booths are the most used, for reasons we can all understand. So when the booth isn't working, they tape them off so dudes don't just camp in them. I have seen dude there just rip down the newspaper and still camp in them.

    Commented on 11/14/2008 3:56:12 AM

     
  • I think they could be taped off because the machines are full? I was there last week but it was way early in the morning and at first the gh booths where open but then they got taped off.

  • WTF!?!?!?

    Who was calling the cops?
    the people running the place?
    or what?

    & if your booth has a door & a glory hole & a cop looks in to see you jacking off is that a bust.
    your in a private room & he's being a peeping tom?

    What if a cop press'es the frosted glass button & see you jacking off?

  • I'm pretty sure the frosted windows don't work, or at least didn't work for a while. The first couple of times I went there, I was able to use them no problem, but the last couple of times, at least for a couple of the booths (including the center one with the gh), they didn't work. The guy in the next booth asked me to press the button, which I did, but the glass didn't clear. Hopefully this was a temporary thing.
