Agreed. It makes not objective sense. I mean, there are plenty of existing mug designs out there already in public domain that they could've riffed on if they had to have something that would be instantly recognizable to the tiki crowd. Tiki Bob is the obvious one, but there are others. Not that I think they ever gave a rat's ass about what the tiki crowd cared about.

Near as I can figure it, 3 Dots is likely the only tiki bar they'd ever visited, and they utterly fixated on it. The fact that Austin and Chicago are a long distance apart probably convinced them they could get away with it, and nobody would ever notice. That, and clearly they have not an ounce of creativity in their soul.
