Hilarious: Man gave a $1,000 tip while drunk. Returns the next day to get his money back.

A man who visited a restaurant while drunk gave a generous tip of a whooping $1000 but he came back to retrieve it the next day to the dismay of the waiter who was careful enough not to spend the money just yet.

As reported by the Denver Post  a waiter received a huge tip of $1,088, on a dinner that cost about $60. 

While the waiter was happy to receive such an amount, it was a bit too much  which led the Thailicious’s restaurant owners to hold on to the money in case it was a mistake. Sure enough, the next day the mysterious customer returned and asked for the money back.

“He said, ‘I’m sorry, I was drunk,’” the restaurant’s owner, Bee Anantatho, related. It seems as if in his deep state of hammeredness, the customer was unaware of just how much cash he had on him. The owner assumes that the customer thought the bills he was leaving as a tip were $1 each, but in fact they were $100s.

Despite their disappointment, the customer ended up leaving $100  as a thank you gift to the restaurant for their kindness and how they handled the situation.
