Cities Of The Underworld: 13 - Underground Bootleggers

100 years ago Portland, Oregon was America's Sodom, a city full of vice, considered the most dangerous port in the world. It was a place where you could get drugs or booze or wake up trapped in a cell beneath the earth. Expanses of underground tunnels enabled slave traders, opium runners and speakeasies to flourish. Join host Don Wildman as he ventures beneath modern Portland into the nefarious world of fight clubs, slave tunnels and gambling dens.

Yo...that's dope! I didn't see that one yet but I seen some other episodes! My little brother is going on the Seattle Underground tour on his honeymoon next month! I hear it was dope!
to be honest i thought the underground tour was pretty boring. they told a few good stories about old seattle but you dont see anything too impressive

Yeah, shit was rowdy back then, get a little too swerved at a brothel on 2nd Ave and wake up on a boat sailing to Hong Kong with the captain holding a contract you "signed" saying you'ld work for 18 months. That's gangster.

Ahaha, yeah, lets hope they got laid first, and not just knocked out with an ether-rag and robbed and sold into slavery before they got any pussy. Getting kidnapped is bad enough, but kidnapped with blue-balls is really NOT the bizness, I bet.
