Not the Dons, Vics or Cranes of Tiki but the Joes and Janes that went to the Tiki palaces. They were the ones seeking that Bali Hai... I am sure that at the time none of them were to worried about just how many tikis a place or a movie had in it. I can't fathom someone in say 1963 saying I'm not going there its not Tiki enough!!! Make a Mai Tai and pick up a Ukulele!!! [ Edited by: Beach Bum Scott 2011-01-25 15:50 ]
