Sad to say but Tiki Culture is still too Lo-Brow for Antiques Roadshow so Tiki Culture will not make the Prime Time TV cut. They won't air the appraisal.

We did however shoot a Web Exclusive Appraisal that they will air on their Website or Facebook.

The Tahiti Bar will be shown on PBS Antiques Roadshow in HD Prime Time TV in all the background shots, so keep an eye out when the Pittsburgh show airs next year.

People went crazy when they saw the Bar and it looked real good on TV even without makeup.. I hope it doesn't go to his head! He is now the most famous Witco Bar next to Elvis's.

I had lots of fun, met great people in Pittsburgh and got several solid offers to sell my Bar. (NO-NO-NO)

Thank you to PBS for paying for everything and making us feel like VIP's

Here are links to the two stories they did on me in the Pittsburgh Post Gazette
