Wis waiter surprised with $4,500 tip 2 days after receiving a homophobic message on a tip-less check
On Sunday, a customer received a $142.95 check after having dinner at a restaurant in Madison, Wis.
Even though the service was good, the customer decided not to leave a tip — leaving a hateful message for the server, instead.
“Service was good but we don’t tip sinfull (sic) homosexuals,” the customer wrote.
Two days later, Madison resident Eric Salzwedel went back to the same restaurant, requested that same waiter, and surprised him with the generous tip — which was the result of collaboration of more than 200 strangers.
Salzwedel is one of the co-founders of Do Good Wisconsin, a local organization “dedicated to helping local non-profits, organizations, and teachers continue to make an impact in their community by supporting their efforts.”
He posted a photo of the two checks on social media, writing “to the folks who felt it was necessary to write this hateful note and not tip… don’t worry.”
He added that about 250 people had pitched in to “cover the tip for you.”

I’m guessing that the folks that wrote that “charming” message had no problem being served by a “sinful homosexual”, just the part about tipping the individual……..
Homophobic Horses Behinds……..
