You've got Big Balls. They have Big Balls. She has Big Balls, He has Big Balls, but the Kona has the Biggest Balls of them All!!
We hung some Balls today hungover. (More balls to cum in the future)
The core is there. There will be more and more and more and more and........ added in the next few months or so-ish.
We also hung some nets and some wood stuff hungover today too. Hanging stuff hungover is horribly horrific !!! ( see events page for party pics the night before)

Great job Ben.
It looks more hawaiian than any bar I've been in.
You can tell by the photos it's a real labor of love.

Careful, that could give the MaiKai a run for the money.
We need to see more pic's to really know how great this job is,

Go to the Events page.
Just flew back and boy are my arms tierd. Badda bing! Badda boom. Tangggg!! ( super bumpy flight with all the rain)
What a partay last night!!!!. Another chapter in my personal book of tiki.
The giant 10' x 3' dia. Tongan tiki mask was too big to put into the Kona Club so it is in Berkley, at Thalasa, the 10k sq. ft. Classy Pool Hall bar, for your viewing pleasures. We never made it over to check it out so maybe one of you Locals can go snap a pic and post it for us.
Screwed up a couple of masks to the walls last night and that was it. For a while. This bar will evolve with time. It's basically your home tiki bar . Warm and fuzzy all over. If you don't feel it the first time, then try again. If you don't feel it the second time, go see a shrink!!!
It's gonna take some time to adjust to being home and not up in Oakland/Berkley, my home away from home for the last month and a half. Doug and Julie are top notch and I can feel the Kona Club withdrawls already seteling in and I've only been home for a few hours. I'm going to go and cry now....
p.s. I don't think anyone can beat the Mai Kai. It's
( the Mai Kai)simply the best tiki bar in my world!

Good for you Ben. Have a good cry and then sleep and relax.
I'm not sorry I couldn't make it. Stayed home with my son and played video games with him till he kicked my ass.
I'll let the stories, the beer, and mai tai's seep into the walls, tables, bars & walkways of the Kona Club....and then I'll go and take in the sweet aroma, sights and sounds of it it all.
Mahalo for you hard work.
