ok, so it's martell's tiki bar in point pleasant, nj.

For the love of God stay away from that place!!! I checked out the website and it looks like another extraneous use of the word Tiki... I have nightmares about places like this (picture dissolves with a watery effect and a strumming harp)

I walk into Martell's, I am bewildered that I haven't seen any tikis eventhough the sign clearly states that it is a tiki bar. The place is empty...suddenly, my car key falls from my hand and falls between the slats of the pier/boardwalk flooring...I fall to my knees putting my eye to the hole in the boards. Again I look around and see no one to help me. I look in the hole one more time and beginning to panic I jump to my feet and then it happens...suddenly Martell's is full of mullet wearing guys and even girls holding longneck bottles of Coors Light. Classic rock is blasting from the oversized speakers instantaneously deafening me. I'm screaming for help getting my car key back and no one can hear me...one guy approaches a girl with a large hairdo and uses a bad pick-up line but she smiles and gives him her phone number...in the corner I can see a basketball game on the TV and a bunch of guys all clad in college basketball jersies yelling and screaming at the screen. I am screaming for help - no one acknowledges me. I want to leave but I've lost my car key!!! Sweet Home Alabama cranks up on the sound system and for some odd reason all of Martell's patrons begin singing along and playing air guitar in unison, their mullets swaying with uncanny precision...someone bumps into me...someone spills a Miller Light on my shorts and I awake! (scene dissolves with a watery effect and the same strumming harp)

No I don't think Martell's Tiki Bar is a real tiki bar and I wouldn't waste any time checking it out...one picture is worth a 1000 words...

:drink:


Just Cool!!
