A Guy Is Arrested for Public Intoxication After He Tipped $22,000 at a Bar

I would've guessed that instead of getting drunk and belligerent, it'd be better to get drunk and INSANELY GENEROUS.  Apparently not.

 

 

A guy named Joel Boyers was at a bar in downtown Nashville, Tennessee on Monday.  And he was so drunk that he kept giving the servers HUGE TIPS.

 

 

Over the course of his time there, he tipped $22,000.

 

 

But . . . he'd also been texting his friends strange stuff, about how he'd taken drugs that, quote, "increased his intelligence" and he was carrying a gun.  They were worried, so they called the cops.

 

 

And when the cops got there, the managers at the bar said Joel was causing a disruption . . . because his giant tips were making the servers fight over who'd get to serve him.

 

 

So he was arrested for public intoxication and possession of a firearm while intoxicated.  I guess next time he should tip less and not talk to his friends.
