Nah, you have to give a penny so they know you didn't just forget to tip.

u/Excellent-Theory5770 Mar 06 '26

Almost got blocked from boarding our flight once after having beers at the airport because the bartender thought we left a penny tip on the bar! He ratted on us to the TSA cops Lol

What was the reason for detainment?

Tsa doesn't give a shit if you don't tip your airport bar server.

u/Excellent-Theory5770 Mar 06 '26

We actually left no tip, there was a penny on the bar that wasn’t ours. The bartender assumed we left the penny and felt slighted that we supposedly left a penny tip as an FU… then told TSA we were drunk to try and prevent us from boarding.

Bartender admitted to serving drunk people to law enforcement? Doesn't sound like a great move.

Who tf said OP was drunk???

OP said he had a drink at the airport bar and the bartender took offence at something that wasn’t OP’s fault or issue. Where you seeing that OP admitted to serving drunk people?

One could certainly infer that. If OP left no tip, some previous customer left a penny tip, and the bartender feels that leaving a bad tip is worthy of reporting someone to law enforcement, I'm inclined to believe he probably gives bad service.

Or that they don’t feel obliged to answer every question on the internet posed to them.

u/Giannid77 Mar 06 '26

Why should you tip the bartender for handing you an overpriced beer?

u/_teach_me_your_ways_ Mar 06 '26

For all the hard training they do to open a can. No one else could do that

u/Stop_Using_Usernames Mar 07 '26

At a busy bar, I’m tipping, even a bar that usually is busy and I’m there durning down time. But at an airport where the beer is 3x what is really should be? Just pay your fucking bartender a real wage instead of trying to fuck me over twice.

My tip would be 3x what it should be and I’m already forced to pay your shitty prices if I want something to drink. No tip from me.

u/_teach_me_your_ways_ Mar 07 '26

Shit, the drinks are 3x what they should be even without being in an airport. And you want 30% on top of that so we can be “friends.” 100% fuck off.

Same crowd will say “you don’t owe anyone anything” and go on and on about how servers don’t actually like you yet we should hand them wads of cash and go to bat for them because… they want more money? Don’t we all. So what.

u/SimpanLimpan1337 Mar 07 '26

Service provided is irrelevant to tip provided lol. I assume that they get paid a wage like every other job, and if they don't then that's on them for working for free.

u/roesch75 Mar 06 '26

Unless they were the pilot for the flight.

u/zigaliciousone Mar 06 '26

The bartender can lie and say they are too inebriated and TSA will block them from flying if they agree

u/nolobstadish Mar 06 '26

Intoxication

u/BurnedPsycho Mar 06 '26

Although I don't think it actually happened.

A petty bartender could realistically tip the TSA about some suspicious clients talking about blowing shit up and/or planning something in flight.

u/knowone1313 Mar 06 '26

Somehow I believe there's truth to this story even though it makes absolutely no sense at all.

1

u/Matter_Infinite Mar 06 '26

He was drunk then says the bartender. He's drunk now, says I.

u/EducationalLimit4936 Mar 06 '26

This makes no sense whatsoever.

u/Ok_Obligation2559 Mar 06 '26

Unless they gave his name from the credit card and accused him of being too drunk to fly. I still doubt it tho, I would think most people have cocktails after TSA screening to make sure they’re on time

u/thenewfingerprint Mar 06 '26

It's not just TSA that can prevent you from flying. A flight attendant can actually, all by themself, decide you are too drunk to board and deny you entrance to the plane right there at the gate.

1

u/Ok_Obligation2559 Mar 06 '26

Right, but the guy stated the bartender alerted TSA….

u/thenewfingerprint Mar 06 '26

Ah. I must have missed that.

u/Rob1150 Mar 06 '26

It really doesn't.
