    Re: Jungle Nightclub Safety

    Have gone solo to all those places before and echo most if not all the advice given already. Yeah, the walk out can feel a little sketchy but its mostly people just trying to earn a buck. Once in a while you'll see someone really f'd up and trying to cause trouble.
    at times, it's more fun sitting at the gate whit a red stripe watching the action than it is inside.
    If I ever feel sketched out or think i have "eyes on me", I'll stop at a barrel chicken guy and have a cup of soup or water and chat for a while to feel the situation out.

    Mikey,
    Great advice on sitting back to evaluate the situation with others around, rather than just scooting off on your own with them possibly following. Typical New Yorker move. If someone is watching and you do that, they typically know your onto them and move on to the next mark. If your wrong, at least you've had a good snack!

    Never had a problem there. .....................Wait................I've never been there.

    If I ever did go I'd be a super senior Silver Fox and would have to beat off the women............... But............

    I'm asleep by 8:00PM................. so I guess that's why I've never been there

    They usually round up a group of folks from the AI resort to go to the Jungle so listen out for that OR ask one of the staff members they sometimes will escort a group to the Jungle and hang around with you...done this plenty times but Im cute! Hahaha!! But seriously just ask around the resort when you get there I'm sure you will find someone going IF you don't want to go alone.

    I'm with you Capt. We stay nearby at Rondel Village and my only experience with the Jungle is hearing the music still going through the bathroom window when I visit the head about 330am, I can tell what time it is by whether I still hear the music or not, if I hear the music I still have a few hours to sleep, if I don't, the alarm might be going off soon, I get up about 615 to walk the beach first thing in the morning. I usually walk out to the road before my beach walk and sometimes I can still see the jerk barrels smoking from the previous night's fire.

    Crazy question but do you think it's possible to find a local/driver to take couple 18 year olds out to the bars one night and watch out for them. Like to the Jungle and Alfred's maybe from 10-2ish. What you think the going rate would be for that.

    I would have more concerns about this than just going to the club on my own. IF you have a long time relationship with someone local and can ask them to keep an eye on the kids, that's one thing. Asking people if you can pay them to keep an eye on your kids could attract some unwanted attention. If you are feeling this way, I'd say skip the club all together. There is live and dj music every night of the week on the beach from 10-2. The only thing the jungle has going for it is that there is a cover fee, so the guys who can't, don't, or won't pay to get in are all at the free venues like Bourbon Beach. in my 28 nights in negril, I've been to the jungle 2 times. Not something I have to do every visit! Concerns about going to Roots, Alfred's, and Bourbon Beach are simply getting a car home, which is easy enough. 18 year olds can be two kinds of kids... kids who just want to hang out and have fun, or kids who want to get smashed because they can drink alcohol in public... you know the kids. If they need supervision, perhaps they shouldn't go out alone. If they are young and pretty, they will get attention from a lot of bystanders, at all hours of the day and night.

    I think my question was stated a little wrong. As a mom I would feel better if they had someone driving and escorting them to different clubs and bars for a night. Not thinking of some random person just to pay off the street. Was more thinking of one of the preferred drivers on this site and thought maybe someone has gone and had one of the drivers escort them for the night.
