Flash Report! Head West Young Man! Anaconda Hits The Oregon Theater Back-To-Back on April 4th and 5th, 2018! With Pics!

Doc here, a man who some say has a name known in the Samoan community as "The Great Mustache", but is pronounced way different. 

Senior reporter Anaconda (Samoan name unknown) is back, and with a two-fer of back to back days at Portland's awesome Oregon Theater. And even though this was a mid-week visit, he did get a change to meet some of Rip City's illuminati such as Joe (manager of The OT), Brent (hey Brent!), and a few well-known ladies.

Let's cut to the chase, shall we?  Let's welcome back Anaconda, and hear his theater tail tale.

Hey Doc,

Anaconda back again with another tale from the front lines of This Thing of Ours. Let’s start by going back in time a couple months. I had a visit planned to Portland’s Oregon Theater in January when I had to be in SoCal for work. While I was able to hit up Barnett Adult Superstore a couple different nights (report here), I had a bout with a stomach bug that prevented me from making the trip up to Portland. I vowed that there was no way I was going to miss the chance to get up there the next time I was out west.

So, back to present day, work called me to NoCal this time. I made my arrangements and no illness was going to stop me this time. My plan was a 2-day trip to Portland so that I could maximize my chances at seeing significant action. I was very excited in the weeks leading up to my visit, and kept a close eye on the Twitter feeds of @Oregon_Theater and @TheaterTails.

DAY 1 - Wednesday 4/4/18

My plane touched down on Wednesday evening around 7:30PM and thanks to PDX being relatively small and easy to navigate, I was off the plane, in a rental car, and on my way to the theater more quickly than expected and I arrived a little after 8. I walked in and greeted Joe and we chatted about this and that. He is way more than just the guy who takes your admission fee. He’s a good guy who takes in interest in the patrons and is serious about making sure there’s no BS going on at the OT. Thanks for being such a great host during my 2 day visit!!

He walked me around the theater and told me about the upgrades he’s been making, and the ones he has planned. The auditorium is an interesting hybrid of a space. In most of the old movie houses, the original seating is still there, i.e. folding seat type rows. And in the “theater rooms” in most of the good bookstores, you find couches and comfy chairs. At the OT, the huge auditorium in filled with about 70 couches and some big comfy chairs as well. Up front and in the center, is a very large couples and single female only section. This accounts for roughly 30-40% of the space. Also up front there is an exam table, a queen size bed, a very sturdy massage/gang bang table, as well as a group of 6 free-standing glory hole booths.
