As soon as I saw this headline in the Sydney Morning Herald I knew somethng was up. So Devout Cathoic Pilgrims that spent a lot to get here, in Youth Groups, being shuttled from place to place , and not exactly have a lot of excess spending are going to Brothels? No doubt out of a Crowd that size a few were tempted. However the last line gives us the story
Pilgrims boom Sydney sex trade
PILGRIMS have increased business in an unlikely area, the city's brothels.
Adult Business Association spokesman Chris Seage said the boom in business had taken brothel owners by surprise.
"The brothel owners are having to put on extra girls to meet the demand," he said.
"Business is up by around 20 per cent in brothels in the city, Surry Hills, Bondi and the lower North Shore. The owners are saying they have not seen anything like it since the Olympics."
Visiting media and support staff were adding to the trade.
Of course Adult Business Association spokesman Chris Seage might not be the best source to give us honest stats :). I thin the Pilgrims were not demanding escorts but Christ as we see here.
