In my blog about black peeps not tipping I told you the story of Lebron James and how he tipped $20 on a 5k bill at a restaurant. That was an example of how a professional black athlete tips. Now I'm going to show you an example of how a professional white athlete tips.
I just read a article about Ben Roethlisberger on Yahoo. Apparently the 2 time Super Bowl champion, who gets sero respect btw for winning those SB's, takes his offensive line out for dinner the Tuesday before the Super Bowl. It's a tradition for him. After dinner he took the guys to a, Dallas area I'm assuming since the Super Bowl is in Dallas this year, Piano Bar for drinks. After buying himself, as well as, the rest of his teamates and numerous bar patrons multible rounds of drinks he paid the bill. It was $800. He tipped $200. That's right. Just an observation I thought I'd make you aware of. The irony is quite overwhelming so I don't really need to say anymore.
This is also one of the many reasons why I am going for the Steelers in the Superbowl. It's also one of the many reasons why I like Ben as a player and a person.
