A donkey show is a form of live entertainment that is a semi-popular sex-tourism performance in Mexico.It is common for taxi drivers in Ciudad Juarez, and Nuevo Laredo, Mexico to offer tourists a ride to see a "donkey show."^{[citation needed]} Donkey shows are performed (or have been performed) in the red light districts of each of these cities. The primary purpose of such shows is to entice tourists to drink copious amounts of alcohol while waiting for the show to begin. In most instances, an actual donkey show will be performed, but patrons may need to wait until the crowd size is considered large enough to begin the show (and liquor sales have been sufficient).^{[citation needed]} On the rare occasion, the show might not be performed and the disgruntled patrons eventually leave.^{[citation needed]} Also, there have been reports of some tourists (especially those traveling alone) being offered rides to see such shows, and instead are taken to a remote location to be robbed.^{[citation needed]}

[edit] Description

The donkey show is one of several types of live sex shows presented in Mexican Boy's Towns. Other shows include the "Banana Show" (where a stripper performs banana insertion), the "Candle Show" (candle insertion), the "Lesbian Show", the Monkey Show (where a waiter dressed in a gorilla suit has sex with a stripper), and a "Sex Show" (where patrons are invited on stage to have sex with the stripper free of charge). Generally, bars with shows only offer one or two types of performances. In other words, they tend to specialize. For example, one particular bar may offer Banana and Monkey shows, while another has Candle and Lesbian shows, etc. To be clear, most bars in the various Boy's Towns along the border do not offer such explicit shows. Instead, most just offer standard strip shows.^[1][2]
