Sea-Arama Marineworld in Galveston, Texas:

In 1970, Sea-Arama underwent a major expansion in which they added a "Garden of The Gods" with two large tikis. The largest was 16-foot tall and weighed 5,000 lbs.

In this old map of the park, you can see the two tikis on the left-hand side:

Ironically, the park would host these big Christian youth conferences in the 70s and the contemporary Christian bands would play in the The Garden of The Gods, with the two pagan idols towering over them.
