You smart Johnie 🙏🏼😇🌹 watching from California ❤🙏🏼😇🌹

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 feel like I’m looking at my own ghost. Stationed there Feb 1975 - Dec 1976. Then again for six months in 1979.

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!!!!!

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 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.

Aw man! The fun I used to have there back in the late 80's and early 90's while in the Navy!! The women there were usually down for ANYTHING!!

Was there in the 1978. 1980 great place good times.

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year to... You Johnny and your wife and family.

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.

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.

Great video thanks for the message about Taxi drivers I will be traveling to Cebu eventually.

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.

hey Johny keep it up a good job,thanks buddy hope to meet there someday.i ilive in Denver

Super Cool Video.. Thanks Johnny

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.

Very cool views of the area my friend, awesome job 👍

Thanks for the video !

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) (:

Thank you sir. I remember it as an 18 year old jarhead

Shades of what used to be. Subic used to be fun even in the early 00's

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!

Very nice video.. I could not recognize anything though from the old days...

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

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.

Thanks for another enjoyable and interesting video. Be blessed, but watch your wallet. 😉

Last time was in Subic City was Summer 92. VC-5 First Class that was left had a party there. Not many of us.

Fox Hole used to be one of my favourites! Eagle and Kinky's also.

I used to go there johnny way back in 2010 to 2015

1966-1968 7th Fleet Club, also Bamboo Club at the far end of town Good Times !!!

Looks real cloudy there

Twenty years ago, she may have changed. :) Memories, I remember Marilyn's and TJ's....and many others that I don't remember their names.

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.

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.

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.

If the Navy comes back it may bring some bars back

Excellent

I remember a girl in a Subic bar who used to say "you want tulo, i give you tulo".

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.

Wow, what a run down dump .. Always the last stop on the crazy train ..

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

Maligayang Pasko at Manigong Bagong Taon!!!

MID 60s, SUBIC CITY WAS COMPLETELY OUTOF BOUNDS,,,I HAD MY CAR AND MOTORCYCLE, SO I WAS THERE A LOT

I used to hang out at the high times bar

I was to drunk to remember the names of the bars

Does anybody remember the General Custer Super Club? I was there 1975-76. Lots of memories.

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..

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.

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?

13:28 part is Sweet 16 bar,managed by Mr. Leonardo Suarez Sr.

Bet those bars walls could tell some tells if walls could talk lol

Called many things, at one time it was called OFF LIMITS

i was there in about 73

Chiquitita Bar is now where High Times used to be.

1986 USS TARAWA USMC Peso Jimmy's, Lirius #1 & 2

Game of "Smiles" at Marilyn's... would that wall would say.

she liked you johnny you should have helped her with the heavy bag .

i have a stripper girlfriend there in Chiquita Bar Calapandayan 2011 , 2012 Chiquita Bar in Calapandayan area ... her name was ....

This is why all the ads are online RE the phils.........tourism down.............. major effect..........

what ever happened to the bar that had aligator in front

The Miami bar and the Crow Bar where raided for underage girls, that pretty much killed the bar business out there, there us a U-Tube video of the raid still floating around.

Why would a business owner want a bar on the 2nd floor? Imagine all the drunks traversing the steps.

That looks like a war zone in Syria!!! Which road is it, not Barreto I take it?
