It sounds like a simple thing, but it takes more than being an occasional friendly face to get your name on the wall at Tiki-Ti. Our own Weird Unc was given his own slip at Tiki-Ti recently I was sitting next to Humuhumu and Weird Unc the night that this happened. I must say it was an emotional one. For those that don't know, its considered a high honor to have your name on the walls of the Tiki Ti. You can't just put your name card up there - its up to Mike Sr. to offer the priviledge to you after showing many years of loyalty to their fine establishment. As you can see, it took Judd 10 years! Miles Thompson was offered the priviledge on the same night so I was fortunate to get to witness that too! Humu, I hadn't seen that card with 'Sventiki' on it before but I wouldn't doubt that is his. His name also happens to be on another card with Jeff 'Beachbum' Berry's signature just above the short end of the bar as you enter on the left. CONGRATS TO JUDD & MILES!!
