Trouble at the Hale Tiki

I thought the Hale Tiki in Augusta, GA was closed?

According to this news story, a fight broke inside the Hale Tiki last Saturday night, which led to a drive-by shooting where a 15 year old girl was shot in the hip.

News video footage shows the Hale Tiki sign still up. No word on whether Phil Spector was in the area.

The news report said it was "rented out." So it's closed but just rented out for private events.

That place is just cursed.

On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams....and what a nice sign it still is, sigh. How odd, in Atlanta they are doing dating games at a Tiki Bar, while in nearby Augusta they are shooting the place up! Those Southerners are so temperamental.

Now, Bigbro, there are those of us southerners with some degree of genteel breeding...But there again, I'm ancestral German.

Perhaps they were filming "9 Mile" (the sequel to 8 Mile) there?

Slacks,

In Augusta it would be titled "Way Down Yonder Near to the River".

In Pennsylvania it would be titled "Youse know...up deah by dat wauta"..

welcome to "the civil war, part 2" :P

You should all move to Florida, it's the northern state that's south of the Mason Dixon line.

Gun City welcomes you!

Post time, and just checking to see if i got my 'Breeders Cup' on !!!!!
