The value Proposition - Home Tiki Bars

You're within driving distance of a well-preserved, vintage, and might I remind, NEARLY EXTINCT Trader Vic's and the only comment is "I can do better at home"? Well, honestly, I can too. I can do better drink-wise than most of these places at home, Atlanta Vic's included. But if everyone (not just TCers) just sat at home and drank their own drinks and stared at their own bamboo-covered walls, these places would be kaput and the only tiki bars left would be the ones in our homes. And that would be sad. Personally, I'll continue to fly 1000s of miles and drive across states to visit these few places that are left. That is, until they are finally gone. Or I'm gone, whichever comes first. Now, back to Geoff's ramblings... :wink:
