"Best Restroom" Found in Missouri Theatre
The finest restrooms in America are in the Shoji Tabuchi Theatre in Branson, Missouri, says the Internet public who cast online ballots in the 8th annual “America’s Best Restroom” contest. The
2009 contest attracted nominations from a wide cross-section of
businesses, including restaurants, hotels and several theatres. Ten
finalists were selected based on exceptional hygiene, style and open
access to the public.
“This
contest is meant to be fun, but there’s also an important message,
which is that restroom hygiene matters - for good health and good
business," said Cintas Senior Marketing Manager Keith Hartman. "Cintas
is proud to honor the Shoji Tabuchi Theatre, and we congratulate all of
our participants this year."
Tens of thousands of votes were cast at the program’s web site, which produced the following results:
1. The Shoji Tabuchi Theater, Branson, Missouri
2. The Tremont Plaza Hotel, Baltimore, MD
3. Radio City Music Hall, New York, NY
4. Zeffirino Ristorante, Las Vegas, NV
5. The Drake Hotel, Chicago, Illinois
Among
the remaining finalists, those placing in sixth through tenth place are
as follows: Macy’s – Union Square in San Francisco, California; The
Tampa Theatre in Tampa, Florida; NOVA 535 in St. Petersburg, Florida;
The Fox Theatre in Detroit, Michigan and Canlis Restaurant in Seattle,
Washington.
The
Shoji Tabuchi Theatre received the coveted “America’s Best Restroom”
plaque of recognition from Cintas during a special presentation today,
and secured its place in the “America’s Best Restroom Hall of Fame”
found here.
“We
believe these restrooms are the most elaborate and ornate anywhere,”
says Theatre Manager Michael J. Frederick. “Each restroom represents
1,800 square feet of deliberate, one-of-a-kind elegance.”
