Fascinating! I hear that around that time even bars, motels and apartment buildings bore the name "TIKI" !!!

True but those examples use the term to highlight Tiki iconography from a architectural or a marketing design perspective.

What struck me odd about the article was the use of the term to brand a one-time or recurring EVENT in much the same way we see in the Tiki Revival. This was 35 years before the first Tiki Oasis !! :)
