As with most awesome things, tiki that is, Polynesia as kitsch party motif was invented right here in Los Angeles.

Except it wasn't kitsch back then.

In the meantime, here are some of the few, the proud, the tacky: the grand tikis of the Southland.

Oh sweet frozen Mai Tai on a stick, is there some quota for the number of times the words "kitsch","tacky", and "freaky" must appear in any article about Tiki?
