wow..that is some fine SLEUTHING being done...see, the wife ( Lori) & I both agree it was DEFINITELY Dons! Admittedly, its been well over 23 years and I am pretty sure I used to have a matchbook and the photo jacket...we have non-digital ALBUMS of this stuff, though, so finding anything is well...a LABOR. I do recall the bridge being by far the most TIKI-ish part of the experience and the photo-girl added a certain Dr. No/James Bond quality to the entire thing..that said, even for then the prices were $$$ and the drinks a LOT better than the FOOD. We also gambled at the Sands a year before it came down and the experiences were similar..we enjoyed both spots a lot but were the youngesr people in both places by FAR. Sands used to give out free coffee mugs so I have about a dozen of those. |
