If there is one game that Pattaya bar girls like to play, its Connect Four. Thats right; Im talking about that silly game that most of us played as children. Connect Four is widely used in Pattaya bars as a means to communicate across the cultural divide that exists between Western men and Pattaya girls.

In case youve forgotten, the game is kind of like a three dimensional version of tic-tac-toe. Its played on a vertical board that is seven spaces across and six spaces high. Players use men that are similar to checkers. The men are colored red and black and each player starts with 21 men.

The board is similar to a cage. Players alternate dropping their men, one by one, though slots in the top of the cage. The object of the game is to be the first player to get four men placed in a row. The four-in-a-row can be vertical, horizontal, or diagonal.

There is hardly a bar in Pattaya, Thailand that doesnt have this game available. Ive seen it in every bar I ever visited in this part of the country. Its popular because it allows the girls to communicate with customers in spite of the language barrier.

You see, Western men flock to Pattaya because of its reputation as a destination for sex tourism. Most of the boys who arrive in town, however, dont speak a bit of Thai and the bar girls that they seek dont speak English. Thats where Connect Four comes into play.

Somewhere along the line, an enterprising bar owner introduced this game and it has become a Pattaya institution ever since. The couples that you see playing are smiling, laughing, drinking, and having a great time together in spite of the fact that they dont speak the same language. Connect Four is their common language.

Some of the girls in Pattaya have become quite skilled at the game. I never realized how technical the game really was until I performed a search on Google. There are strategies that are quite complex and at least one mathematician has written his entire masters thesis about the game. Some of the girls know the strategy and they like to play for free drinks.

One friend of mine who lives full time in Pattaya swears that its an erotic game as well. He claims to have been smitten by a beautiful Pattaya girl with eyes as deep and beautiful as a crystal ball. This girl has devised a variation of the game whereby youre not allowed to look at the board as you play.

According to her rules, each player may only look into the eyes of the other player as their tokens are put into play. You must guess the position of the tokens by the look in your opponents eyes. Apparently, this girl is hypnotic because my friend just cant stop talking about how beautiful she is and he wont let anyone else know where she works.

Regardless of the variation being played, this simple childrens game has become an indispensible language tool in the life of Pattaya bar girls and their Western boyfriends. If youre planning a trip to Pattaya, you should definitely learn how to play Connect Four before you travel.
