Re: Hussongs Cantina-Ensenada
Great Hussongs stories Lips!!
I remember the first time I went into Hussongs, back in 1985, there were thousands and thousands of business cards covering the walls there. Another time we went there and someone had rolled a cigarette and placed it into the mouth of the moose head. It was hilarious looking! I have a picture of that somewhere. |

Re: Hussongs Cantina-Ensenada
Back in the day the little federale Antonio was the man in charge. They would take loud mouths/tuff guys into their office and beat the hell out of them. Come back very well behaved. I liked the guy that use to come in with the rattlesnake inside the 5 gallon glass sparkletts bottle. You would put your hand up against the side of the glass and see if you could leave it there when the snake struck, Never was able to do it. Also the guy with the car battery that you and another dummy would hold the leads and see who let go first. I always won that one, the trick was not to let go until after he turned it up to six because you couldn't!!! Some of you guys gotta remember those guys. That was when the artist dude was always in there drawing those pics for the walls by the windows...What times those were. I still go thru Hussongs all the time. When we come down we park in back like old times and eat tacos next door/Best Tacos!!!! Doesn't look like it changed a bit to me and it still has that same smell!!! Memories.....

Re: Hussongs Cantina-Ensenada
I try to avoid establishments like Hussong's. There is an entire group that makes a living out of "scouting" drunk Americans. If you want to get your party on go further south, like to the Ceilito Lindo, in Bahia de San Quintin. Much safer and the Margaritas are awesome....

Re: Hussongs Cantina-Ensenada
I was in Hussongs in about 1971 with my wife and her sister, sitting at the bar drinking beers. In comes a nice sober couple, they started on tequilla shooters, within about 25 minutes they were getting cross with each other and yelling. The cop from outside came in and stood in front of the fireplace holding his rifle. I went over and told the couple to cool it or get arrested. They slowed down and in another 20 they were passed out head down on the table, some people just should not drink tequilla. 0 to obnoxious in 25 minutes, 0 to passed out about 45 minutes
