No one should go out of there way to Red Robin just for the two faced glass Tiki mug, it would be too sad. Those things are all over the place, even non Tiki joints will use them for a Mai Tai or something similar (I think some Mexican chain restaurants may use them too as they look vaguely Aztec). A bar supply place here in Seattleville quoted me a price of fifty bucks a dozen for the things...Check around locally and maybe you can stock the home bar (giving your friends something to steal!). Of the frosted Disney version of the mug Chris Pfouts in "Hula Dancers and Tiki Gods" said "On the collector level you just about can't give these away. Good for what they were intended for, though."

biotron200: My last (and final) experience with Red Robin was similar to yours. Amazingly the chain survives. The Ordinarys' thirst for bad service and poor food in a crummy atmosphere seems unquenchable.
