Sadly all those great pictures that puamana posted are gone and she went through all her thumb drives to repost them but she was unable to find them. :( After finding those glasses it finally dawned on me to check youtube for televised tournaments held there and of the ones on there, one the 1985 Seattle open struck paydirt!

First up at and early commercial break we see the trophy itself...

And at a later break two of the trophies with the tiki fountain in between them. It turns out one of my wife's best friends grew up across the road from the lanes and was in leagues there winning a bunch of trophies including ones like the tiki ones here and in Dawn's photo, all of which she had donated to special olympics...

At the end the trophy named Leilani Princess is awarded to the winner... (sorry about the image quality but these were taken from what looks like old vhs tape)

Since all of Mimi's are gone I grabbed a couple from Flickr (shawn anderson's photos taken a month before the lanes closed)

The entrance tiki...

And a Witco that I heard was on or by the restrooms...
