At Hukilau 2002, at Saturday's Tiki Bazaar, they were selling the BOT upstairs at the vendors. This little boy was about 8-10 and his Dad bought it for him and he tore into that platic wrapper and came jumping down the steps so incredibly happy! It was awesome. I think Big Bro signed it for him too!

I went to the barber yesterday and noticed the 3 foot palm wood 40+ year old tiki that was given to him a few months ago was gone. I had asked him for it and he said an 80+ year old man from his church gave it to him so he couldn't sell it. Where did it go? There was a handicapped boy who came in and was crazy about it. Said he always wanted one but his parents wouldn't get him one. Too expensive. So he asked to buy it. He sold it for $20 and gave the money to the food bank. A new tiki fan is boosted on his way here in the south!
