With luck and a little (and by a "little" I mean a lot of) drinking, one can turn Domingo de Piña into Domingo de Pena! |

Very cool. How were these made? It doesn't look like the tops of the pineapples were cut off. I see in the photos that a triangle section was removed from near the top of the pineapple. How much fruit was removed from the pineapple? Is there something I'm not seeing in the photos? It seems like some of the fruit would have to removed for the drink to be poured in, and it seems like that would be hard to do through a little triangle section. Looks like everybody had a fantastic time. |

The recent Luau in Beverly Hills used real pineapples and they held up well. |

Art, Thanks for pointing out that all the pineapples are sitting in metal dishes. I missed that! I guess the bottoms of the pineapples were cut out and the fruit was removed. I see one woman in one of the photos has the top of her pineapple cut off. Would somebody that was there please tell us what it was like? By the way, you are doing a fantastic job with Don the Beachcomber. Keep up what you are doing with the Dagger Bar. I hope it is working for you cash flow wise and you are able to stay in business. |

One of the photos clearly shows a pineapple with the lid removed. So why the plates/bowls? For extra support? Pineapples are quite a bit softer than glass or ceramic. I'm guessing better safe than sorry. Plus they won't tip over as easily when they have a bowl to nest in. |

The tops of the pineapples were removed and the pineapple hollowed from the top. And the special cocktails were quite delicious. |
