"Found this place called the "Tiki Hut" in Elko, Nevada. The owners were in the process of making some changes to this place, but sadly, the only tiki were on the sign. There was a "velvet" style wall painting behind the bar and two mugs from Trader Dick's in Reno, but this is primarily a sports bar/casino. "

I found this cheery item;

I only have bad feelings for Elko because the one and only time I was there was to identify my brothers body. It was in Jan. 1994 his name was Kevin Thomas and he was almost 30 years old. He was found by a police officer in the Tiki Hut parking lot. It is listed as an unsolved homicide. No one knew him because he was passing through and didn't live there. I wish someone would step forward and tell if they know anything. I never stop missing him and never stop thinking about him. I hope to find answers some day.
