    I've heard that Caddy and Papa will take you across, get paid for the round trip and then leave your ### sit on the wrong side of the border.

    They've never done that to me. I've been going across with them for years.

    BUT, I did get my %$%# jacked up by the help. Pay or go to jail. I made the mistake of letting them drop me at the bar, and waiting on a friend to pick me up. I usually had them drop me at the corner after crossing, or a motel.

    And since we all know what services they provide, they thought my friend was there to cut the middle man out.

    I don't know that I'd drop across to play in some places. Nueva Laredo especially. US citizens have been dropping of radar there. :coffee:

    It's been 3 years since I was in Laredo. Things have definitely changed for the worse down there since then.

    About three months after the last time I was there was when the cartel wars started. I'm glad I wasn't around any at that time.
