Speaking of sins, forgive me for not posting for some time. Over the past 2 weeks, ironically, I spent a few days at an airport… but this time I wasn’t flying; instead, I was having fun throwing iron around and getting my adrenaline pumped by doing things like this during my stunt driving training. It definitely has been a fun couple of days to say the least.
Now back getting back in the swing of things, I came across an interesting AskMen article about the top 10 “sin cities” around the globe. When I hear the words “sin city”, I immediately think of Las Vegas (which took the #4 spot), so it was interesting to see where the other wild parts of the globe were. The criteria is based on a strong presence of gambling, sex, drinking, drugs and/or partying.
Here’s the top 10 according to the original article posted on news.com.au.
- Pattaya, Thailand
- Tijuana, Mexico
- Amsterdam, The Netherlands
- Las Vegas, Nevada
- Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
- Moscow, Russia
- New Orleans, Louisiana
- Manama, Bahrain
- Macau, China
- Berlin, Germany
Out of the above cities, I’ve been to 5/10. How about you? Do you think this list is fairly accurate? Any other place you’d place on the list? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
New Girl in the Air says
I guess I’m more of a good girl than I thought…I’ve only been to 2/10, though I’d love to hit 5 others.
GENE N says
camden, new jersey
BBD says
Washington, D.C.
The Miles Professor says
I actually came over to say I like the new signature and I know we’re both big Gossip Girl fans too ;)
But while I’m here, I’ve been to 4 cities on the list.
Miles says
Do cities visited as a child count? If so, 4.
Leslie H (tripswithtykes) says
I’ve been to 4 of 10 (Amsterdam, Las Vegas, New Orleans, and Berlin). Surprised that Bangkok isn’t on the list. And I think a place like Ibiza, Spain might warrant an honorable mention.
Vivek D says
Only 2 :(
Santastico says
I’ve been to 5 out of 10!!! However, based on the definition above I feel there are many more cities that could easily make to top 10. Where is Bangkok in this ranking? Manila? Miami?
M. Paci says
I’m at 4. Though I wonder why Roppongi isn’t on the list… ;)
smitty06 says
I’m in for 4 (vegas, rio, macau and new orleans)
Earle keizer says
I am from Amsterdam and now live in Vegas. I tell my lawyer that I go to Bangkok an pataya to get suits made and the food. I am sticking to that story

Winston says
6/10. I’m Filipino Angelina but had to google P.Burgos street. Lol.
Jim says
Only 4 for me:
Las Vegas, Nevada
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
New Orleans, Louisiana
Macau, China
MSJ says
7/10 for me. What happens in Pattaya, Tijuana, Amsterdam, Vegas, Rio, New Orleans, and Macau stays there :)
Paul says
I live in Vegas does that count?
Jeanne M says
7 out of 10 and I live in Vegas.
Kevin says
Sweet – 9 of 10… Still missing Bahrain (Who would have guessed?).
Favorite? That would be a toss-up between Moscow and Bangkok. :-)
Neal Z. says
I’m at 50%: Tijuana, Mexico; Amsterdam, The Netherlands; Las Vegas, Nevada; New Orleans, Louisiana; Macau, China. Bangkok and Prague should definitely be on the list.
