Sad thing is, he probably didn't get to keep the whole thing. He has to tip out the bus boy and the bartender, whom probably would kill that guy if he didn't give them both 1,000 each because they waited on that table too. Plus if its a fancy restaurant there is also an assistant waiter. So he probably got 5g's and split the rest, but still, a monster tip.
Biggest tip I ever heard of was when I was working valet in Las Vegas. Supposedly Mike Tyson came into Valet in his Lambo. Told the guy he could keep it.
Mike Tyson also had a Bentley that broke down on him so he just left it on the side of the road and never picked it up again lol.
I actually drove Mike Tysons Maybach and that **** is soooo nice, he is a crazy looking mother****er that you dont wanna mess with, but he seemed like he was on his best behavior that day.
Biggest tip I ever got was 500$ from Eric Lindgren (Professional Poker Player) during the 2006 WSOP. He got word that Chip Reese gave us 100$ and then Phil Ivey gave us 200$ and Mike Matasow gave us 300$ so he had to outdo them all and tip up 500 haha, yea that was a very good day. All I have to say is working valet during the WSOP is probably the best month of tips.
EDIT: I just realised it was just a lunch, so he probably did get to keep the whole thing GOD DAMN!
