TikiSkip, yes, Dons is big. I've been to the Mai Kai too (hell, I played it a couple of years ago). It's not THAT big, but it IS bigger than most restaurants, I would say. Two large indoor waterfalls, Six different rooms (three with stages), a room FULL of stuff from Bosko's short lived Taboo Cove, as well as the many pufferfish that were in the Luau in Beverly Hills (the recent incarnation, not Stephen Crane's), more vintage Milan Guanko tikis than you could imagine… That just touches on it. It has everything that you could want in a tiki bar. Most nights they are playing exotica CDs that I gave them… I'm still working on getting them to play DVDs of vintage Hawaii, rather than sports in the bar….

I totally 'get' the greasing of the list makers though too...
