Lake, I have to admit, I wouldn't be caught dead in the place. Doesn't do anything for me. Still doesn't seem right to just rag on the place because some hard working guy took out a lease on some dead tiki bar. While it would have been nice to see the place restored, the place obviously has some appeal to a lot of people whose tastes may be different than ours. That's all I'm saying. Nothing more, nothing less. Seems like nobody is listening to what I'm saying.

So many bad waves.... :(

Swanky, mahalo for the input. Your use of profanity is a true art form.

Basement, I didn't come on here to defend sports bars. I just don't see any reason to put something down, that's all.

While you may not see any great "prevailing sense of design, class, and style, and art forms" of the infamous sports bar, some, believe it or not, actually did have some nice characteristics. Along with all the tiki stuff I enjoy, are some nice sports things including a 1903 photo of a great bar in Boston all decorated for the first World Series. The place is different than the Kahiki, but just because it's different, doesn't make it any less important to some people just because you may not happen to like it. How would you like it if I said dogs and cats suck if you happened to like dogs and cats just as much as you enjoyment of all things tiki?

Well, enough of this. I'm feeling so unwanted and misunderstood. What's so bad about liking baseball? Just like Jack said in the timeless classic, Mars Attacks: Can't we all just get along? (maybe that's not a good example to use. After all, he did "buy the farm" right after he opened his mouth) :(

Aloha and salutations to all the friendly people
