Brothel Used Ping Pong to Attract High School Johns
A pingpong hall was a Chinatown brothel's way into the wallets of public high school students. The Post reports that a brothel at 39 Eldridge Street was shut down after parents of Pace High School students realized the brothel owners were targeting their sons.
Benjie Zheng and Ming Liuchang are accused of promoting the Robo-Pong Training Center with business cards that had a "contact number, an image of a topless woman - and a word, 'Good.'" The pingpong hall was a front for the brothel, complete with an hours-of-operation sign that had rulers and pencils on it, and offered "playing cards" for customers which were good for pingpong AND sexual services.
The NYPD ran a sting operation and undercover cops (from the 21 Jump Street division?) were told, "You can pick any of these girls for sex, and it will cost you $35." A police source told the Post, "It was obvious that they were targeting young students, because the prices were so low [$35-60]. Most brothels charge at least $100."
Zheng, Liuchang, and pingpong hall owner Heng Yu Ye were all arrested. One student said, "It doesn't surprise me. There are guys handing out cards with naked girls on them all the time around here." Pace High School has only been open for a few years.

Imports from China help keep a lid on inflation. Hopefully the boys won't get lead poisoning.
Ping pong and Chinese hookers - together in one place. What a city.
It's alleged that the school-aged children were better hung than most residents of the surrounding neighborhood.
I know Gothamist doesn't like comments on their interviews, but the one with Jonah Ray (blow this story) may be the worst-written and edited piece ever on Gothamist.
C'mon guys. "When 9/11 hit..."
You're losing credibility.
It's alleged that the school-aged children were better hung than most residents of the surrounding neighborhood.
wow white guys are really insecure about their penis sizes.
#5 - asian dude
From what I see in the Olympics, you really don't need to use sex to get the Chinese to play ping-pong...
Talk about your student discount.
#6 - white dude with a small penis.
What, you're telling me it's not some place where you get to spank naked women with ping pong paddles? What a ripoff!
You'd think Jen Chung would know some Chinese. In Mandarin. ping pong means big bang. So the Eldridge Street "training center" (Mandarin meaning: thrusting session) was advertising truthfully.
Source: the manager, Ho Ho Ho.
they gave the cards to hispanic students, too.
probably any student who goes to that school.
I wonder who dropped the dime? don't PR and black dudes want some chineee poon?
but you know they'll skip out on paying for the service, that's why you pay first.
I've known a dude who got serviced and refused to pay.
Actually, no, I wouldn't think that Jen would know Chinese.
Especially since she's Korean.
Ewww, FOB Chinee with no hiney! Anyways, shouldn't there really be more Spanish-run brothels in the city...hmmm
AS A PACE HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT I CAN TELL U DAT DA STORY FROM THE NY POST AND CHANNEL 7 IS BIASED. DA STUDENTS HAD NOTHIN TO DO WITH IT AND WE WERE NOT TARGETED.
