La Caminata Nocturna: The Border Crossing Experience (Demetrius Pipkin)

Would you pay $20 for  a three hour “experience” designed to show you what it is like to illegally cross the border from Mexico into the United States? At the amusement center known as Parque EcoAlberto in Hildago Mexico, they are packing the event nightly with tourists and locals.

  • Crossing a river
  • Being driven blindfolded to their final destination of “Dallas” (not really Dallas).
