Is Tiki Ti “Pulling a Bahooka”?

April 2, 2013

“Doing a Bahooka” just became preservation slang for DEFCON 3. This afternoon, Tiki Ti in East Hollywood, L.A.’s second oldest tiki bar announced on Facebook that a “well-dressed person” walked into the miniature Polynesian wonderland this afternoon and offered “Publisher’s Clearing House” money for their teensy tiny 612 square foot bar. Is this an April Fools’ Day trick or does the neighboring Church of Scientology studio plan to start serving tropical cocktails? The bar closed today for their regularly scheduled spring break and is scheduled to reopen April 17th.

Well if a person comes into your bar with “Publisher’s Clearing House” money you must think heck why
beat my head on a wall fighting the State and Feds plus health dept not to mention the breakdowns plus
the one or two a holes you get now and then.
Taking that kind of money is like a fast track to where you are trying to get beating your head against
a wall everyday.

You do miss it when it's gone because it's a part of the family that you love and hate at times.

That new new profile picture on Facebook looked like going off into the sunset to me.
Hope I'm wrong.

Do what's best for you Buhen family, and good luck
in whatever you do, had a great time when I was there.
