They should have stayed home and studied - Wally - 2009-03-17
The U.S. Embassy in Japan on Tuesday issued an alert to the American community that Americans in Tokyo avoid frequenting Roppongi bars and clubs in Tokyo due to a significant increase in reported drink-spiking incidents.
The number of reports of U.S. citizens being drugged in bars has increased significantly in recent weeks. Typically, the victim unknowingly drinks a beverage that has been secretly mixed with a drug that renders the victim unconscious for several hours, during which time large sums of money are charged to the victim’s credit card or the card is stolen outright. Victims sometimes regain consciousness in the bar or club, while at other times the victim awakens on the street.
Because this type of crime is already widespread in Roppongi bars and is on the rise, the U.S. Embassy has recommended that members of the embassy community avoid frequenting drinking establishments in this area. American citizens may consider this recommendation as it applies to their own behavior.
According to the embassy, establishments in the area of Roppongi Intersection (Roppongi Dori and Gaienhigashi-dori) have had the highest level of reported incidents.

But what's the point of going to Japan if you're going to stay home and study once you finally get there?

So do you want to go to Japan so you can drink there?

I'd like to enjoy normal life yes, but drinking is of course not the only thing to do.

Why would you go drinking in Roppongi anyway? There are far better places to drink in Tokyo.
