Aw Ben!
I'm gonna shoot down there to represent!

Great Poster Sam!

Thanks so much, atomikitty, Ben and Ken! I look forward to seeing whomever can get there. I'm now bummed that I can't meet the one-eyeeeeeed creator of the Chinese Bamboo Wheel of Fortune of Death and Misery though... Oh well, such is the way the glass eye bounces I guess!

That's what I say......

We are very excited to have Sam Gambino visiting us on the 28th of July!!! Thanks very much toSam, Holden and tikifarm for arranging the event and the beautiful Mugs and Artwork! As Sam is so amazing we are already getting lots of reservations! We are still finalizing the entertainment for the evening, we have a special mix plate planned and the Sam's Original Mai Tai circa 1957/1960 will be flowing for tikicentral and tikifarm for $5. PLease remember this is the recipe was used by Sam's old school bartenders with their hand written notes it is a pineapple based drink without grenadine, etc. if the ONLY Mai Tai to your liking is Trader Vics and you don't want to live on the edge you may want to lean toward beer like the Reverend advised. It is tiki music that evening and we will be having a tiki tuesday beginning in August. We hope you all are as excited to have The Ever-So Talented and genuinely nice guy - Sam Gambino- visiting as we are. We will update with final entertainment plans asap.And thanks again to Holden for makin' it happen!

Samantha

Mmmmmmmm.......

Beeeeeer!

Thanks, Chongo! I'm looking forward to it! It's been 21 years since I've been there, so I'm sure it'll be different.

Shouldn't this post be changed to show the new date of this event? I see that the "Flyer" on the first post has been changed to August 4th, but there has been no mention of the change in any other post and the "header" still sez July 28th.

I would hate to drive the 4 miles from my house and not have an event to partake in.

Of course I jest, but the new date is August 4th, right?

T

So 'Sam's is a not a 7 day week tiki bar ?

Yes, thanks Riptide. I wanted to make sure that I could travel the 2000 miles from my house to be there on the 4th before I officially changed the info in this thread. :) I'll be there on the 4th. I hope to see you there! Now that it's on the 4th, maybe I'll get to meet Crazy Al and the Reverend too!

I'm gonna be out of town on the 27th too, So moving it to the 4th is excellent.

Whew!

double crap!!!

Won't be back home till the 6th..

I'll be with Mrs. Boo and C'Al on the 4th in Frisco..

d'oh!

Ahhhh crap! I too will be in San Francisco on the 4th!

Are the 2 new mugs being produced in large quantities? I haven't read any info on this.

I assume if I keep my plans to go to Sam's on the 28th, the mugs will not be available, right?

S

Ahhhh, the 4th. Much better. Now I can find a sub and bail on my gig!!! YAY!

We're running 1000 per style so you should be aok and you are correct in that the mugs won't be there on the 28th. The shipment was delayed so the 4th is the official launch date of the Sam's Seafood Maori & Marquesan mugs.

Does anyone know what time this shindig kicks off?
