the pineapple has long been a symbol of hospitality..you will find it over doorways the way some folks hang horseshoes (i.e hala kahiki)....i've seen them over the doors to even non tiki bars on occasion (i.e. Nick's bar in chicago).....wayne added pineapples to his tikis for the same reason...simply as a welcoming, hospitable statement....

other than that there is no mystery behind the use of the pineapple symbol.....
