One night we walked into one of our favorite Ybor Gay Bars. A good friend and celebrity bartender who we will call Mike walked in. He insisted on buying us a drink. Mike ordered a round of drinks and asked the bartender (Who knows us all very well) to start a tab. The bartender asked for a credit card which is standard at the club.
Mike said, “You know I always pay in cash. Just start a tab.” The bartender said ‘NO’ and asked for a credit card again.
Mike then took his…. shoes off and slammed them on the bar top saying a little upsetting, “Here keep my shoes you know I’m not walking out with out them!!!”
We all laughed. The next day we saw Mike and commented on how funny it was last night when he left his shoes on the bar top. Mike looked surprised and said, “OMG!! I lost my shoes last night! Do you think I paid my tab?”
After several calls we found out that Mike did pay his tab and told them to keep his shoes. LOL
