I'm with Maxton and Manic Cat on this - It's the tikis!

I promise I won't EVER talk about symbolic anything after this, but.......

I figure that in the 1940's & 1950's going into a place that's got pagan gods as a centerpiece of the decor was a clear sign that one was checking the rat race at the door and looking to relax with abandon. Not such a big deal nowadays, but I think the tikis still cue folks to let go of their inhibitions - certainly more than a bank of sports blaring TV's do.

OK. I'm done.
