Is there a bar anywhere near by, where we can get a drink?

Seriously if I may make a comment, we like to deal in the physical world
rather than the virtual when it comes to Tiki bars, in other words the virtual Bar is completely
worthless to us if you can't sit down & order a drink.

As for a sports bar, well that is the antithesis of a Tiki Bar and should never been combined
into an unholy nightmarish Chimera of the two!

So get to building the real thing.

That's gonna take a lot of planning, And money. The latter I'm a little short on right now. :(

Just for background, the whole idea originated from a joke that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was going to open up a Hawaiian themed restaurant. (Hence the name Luau Cindor). It became a Hawaiian BBQ, and finally a tiki bar as the joke evolved, since there weren't really that many Hawaiian BBQ places around that I know of. (That and Kareem is Muslim, so that makes the whole BBQ thing kind of awkward).

The idea to actually try to open an actual Luau Cindor up just evolved over time. I still wanted to use the name, and to keep the connection with basketball somehow. I figured "tiki-themed" sports bar" was an easier way to explain it.
