Okay Tiki-Ray, you got me on that rock thing. But with 300 available you should be able to get one no problem if you camp out in front of the Hut the night before :)

Polynesiac, glad you're going to make it!

I know that the pic of the above mug is big but I also tend to think Squid's hands are small.

Nope. Doomed testicles, perhaps. No more squidlings for me :)

I can't believe I even went there. Now I have to apologize to Atomikitty and sit in the corner....

Hey Grog , that pic of Squid is friggin priceless . I think he looks more like Juan Valdez though. Hes the only one in Columbia still growing coffee ! I sure hope nobody starts morphing pics of Ken Rusic . You know how sensitive he is . Tiki-Ray

GROG posted on Sun, Dec 10, 2006 1:34 PM

GROG doubt there's any chance of that. GROG think you can't make Ruzic any funnier looking than he already is.

P.S. If you missed the last show, here's the link to it so you can see pics of the mayhem...I mean fun, that went on so you'll know kind of what to expect. (GROG is always amazed at how few pictures people post of the actual art from the art shows.)

The real question here is "who wants a piece of Ruzic!?"

Not me!!

GROG posted on Mon, Dec 11, 2006 1:42 PM

That's a good one Holden. Where'd you find that? GROG did a search on the internet to find a picture of Ruzic in a wrestling outfit and GROG only find this:

Oh No!
You found my old Marine Corps Parade Outfit pictures! And photos from the old Wrestling Days? Curse you Red Barons!
Shhhhhh! Pipe down! I can hear School marm Susie walking back to the classroom! Sit up straight and behave....

[ Edited by: little lost tiki 2006-12-11 14:12 ]

I am pleased to announce the arrival of the wrestler's masks for the Tonga Hut's MUG WARZ deathmatch! Here are four of the more fearsome...

GROG posted on Mon, Dec 11, 2006 3:38 PM

GROG not exactly sure why Ken always trying to get a wrestling match started between a bunch of burly men.

GROG just going to Tonga Hut to see pretty women.

C'mon GROGGIE!
Can't we all just get along?

GROG posted on Mon, Dec 11, 2006 4:50 PM

Ya know Kinny, GROG started this thread to invite people to come to the Tonga Hut for a good time of booze, art, tiki mugs, and booze, and you're scaring them away by the truckloads!

mahaloz guys. this is some funny stuff!

Sorry Ken , I told them NOT to post pics of you and look what happens . Somehow I feel responsible.Oh well , back to carving .

School marm?... Did you say "SCHOOL MARM"? You, sir are sadly mistaken. Don't be fooled by that easy-breezy smile and den-motherly demeanor. Atomikitty has been training for Mug Wars and will tolerate NO DISRESPECT! Behold the power of LUCHA ATOMIKITTY!

Nobody's safe anymore.

Not even Her manager Senor "DON KING" Westland!

I wonder if Tiki Ray will be safe from these blatant defamations of character???????

You guys are freakin whacked!!!!!!

Was going to try to post some pics and info

on what I'm bringing but there is NO WAY to follow

this up!!!

Just ruined another keyboard!!!

p.s. I'm actually getting kind of scared to show up!!!

GROG posted on Mon, Dec 11, 2006 7:06 PM

Oh God, PLEASE post pics of what you're bringing!!!! At least give this thread the smallest semblance of being on-topic once in awhile.

[ Edited by: GROG 2006-12-11 19:06 ]

What was this thread about again? Shootz and I think my post are off topic. You monkeys are off the planet. I think Iwill start a "photoshop The TC member" thread in bilge. This is some pretty funny stuff though almost like a shot in the arm with absinthe.

Chongolio

Hey Chongo!
Forget all that other blabbering on this post! This post is about MUG WARZ!
I'll throw a question at you all...
What do all of these following things have in Common?









You know what they all have in Common?

I found this poster in a gutter outside the Tonga Hut so I figured I'd share it with my TC Ohana....

Can I get a Marqo Pollo mug and a print for all effort I had to expend scooping this out of the gutter? :)

oh god, i crapped my pants.

OmG.. It just gets better... those knitted masks of Kinny's, you 4 will look Fabulous in those ...

THE TONGA HUT DEC. 16 7PM wouldn't miss it for the world.

S

Hiphip-
You mean we haven't scared you off yet? WOW! A real trooper. Wanna go tag-team on Ruzic? You can even wear my mask!

Calamar

OH MY GOD, You guys are KIIIIIIIIIIIIILLLLLIIIIING ME! This has GOT to be the BEST THREAD EVER!!! Just when I think it's as hysterical as ever, it gets even more hysterical-er!

Little Lost Tiki: PLEASE OH PLEASE make that poster into prints so I can buy one! I've GOTTA have it!

I wanna go to this event SO BAD, but I'm stuck out here in Vegas and just ain't gonna make it.

Have Fun without me you artistic-ly creative Bastages!

Signed: Jealous!

what can you guys do to give this thread a shot in the arm?

Good Morning Little Tigers!
MyMYMY! Almost 5000 Views! Curse all you non-contributing LURKERS! The Tiki Brat Pack works overtime to INFORM and EXCITE you! It's a shame we chased Susie off the Topic....She really kept us all in Check! Glad you all are enjoying These! If you have anything else that might raise TONGA HUT December 16th 7PM awareness,Please Post!Hopefully, at least half of y'all can make it! This has got to be the Funnest Show I've Never Been in!!!! A tip of the hat to Squid and Ernie for certain depictions of individuals on the poster! And I personally apologize if any of the individuals are displeased with their depictions, but contractual agreements are contractual agreements and we all are professionals here!
Tiki Lee,
you sir, win the award for most enthusiastic poster on this topic! (besides Ernie, but it's his Topic!)Prints....I dunno! This was mostly for fun! Now t-shirts would be BADASS!Like I said before....I found this in the gutter outside of the Tonga HUt! We may have some printouts to throw around at the show (I'd like to get my copy signed by all parties involved!)but officially MUG WARZ doesn't even exist! It was just a clever publicity scam to raise Tonga Hut Winter Wonderland awareness!
What's the connection with wrestlers and tiki? Wrestlers tie into the Lucha VaVoom Burlesque crowd which leads to the whole Kustom Kulture thing which leads back to the whole retro bachelor thing which leads to Polynesian Pop!
Despite Ernie's efforts to make this into a tiki mug release party, I will be bringing the Electrified Death Cage for the previously mentioned Matches! It will be held out in the back parking lot, without the permission of the Tonga Hut, no less! I'll be hawking refreshments,books,and maybe some Original Art back there from the back of my pee-stained truck! Hope to see you there!

Ice Cream and Popcorn for all!
Also I'll be posting pix of Senor Calamar's Lucha Libre mask that I just finished up last night! TONIGHT! between 7 and 9pm....
