REWIND: Tokyo subways mean the party is over

This video is hard for me to watch on the mikemcguff.com rewind of my 2007 Thanksgiving Japan trip. We were up way too early for my tastes! But it did give us a chance to see that the clubs really close around 6am in Tokyo!






I am not an early riser, so I thought I was dreaming as we were up at 6am to do the tourist thing in Japan and there were young people all about on the subway. These weren't the people going to work. That was evident by the dude who ralphed all over the floor behind us.

Some Tokyo clubs and bars stay open until 5 or 7am! These people know how to party. In one bar we went to about 3am, there was a guy passed out at a table. I wanted to join him after sake, Yebisu Beer and whatever else we all sampled that night. What can I say? In the US I don't drink that much, I just blog. You probably already knew that though.
