"The Tikis," Monterey Park, CA - Locating Tiki

It is the only one (other than the matchbook) that shows that giant, fire or freon spewing Tiki statue that I was lucky to see in situ at the defunct Lake Elsinore location. Here's my old friend Pete Moruzzi posing with it in 1994: I think I also have a photo of Danny Balsz in the BOT that demonstrates the scale of this giant even better. I was very sad to hear that Danny toppled and broke the statue when he was evicted.
