How did Harvey's manage to send out so many tiki mugs, when 1)Lake Tahoe isn't as visited as major tourist areas 2)It was blown up destroying the on-hand mugs? (Or is "blown up" an exaggeration?) (Or were the mugs used to hold slot machine coins?) (Or maybe there actually aren't that many existing mugs?) When I was a kid my mom used to like to go to Las Vegas and stay at the Sands Hotel...every time we went they would give her a little package with a coffee mug, filled with coupons for shows and food, etc. This resulted in her having quite a collection of Sands coffee mugs. Is it possible that Harveys gave a tiki mug to every guest that came through, rather than selling them like most Tiki establishments do? I see (and have) a bunch of Harvey's tiki mugs as well.
