From the "Hawaiian Room" in Omaha, we have the Tarantula Bowl: At first I couldn't quite understand why a Tarantula Bowl since it's not Tiki at all. I thought that it should be a Scorpion bowl at which point it all made sense. Tarantula's and Scorpions are both arachnids! It is the Hawaiian rooms clever, albeit odd, interpretation of the Scorpion Bowl. A bit of a stretch maybe but would love to see one in person. Has anyone seen one? Does this even exist?
