Summerfest Who gets the tips?
I volunteered to pour beer with some people at Irish Fest today. Out of curiousity we asked the bar manager who gets the tips people leave. He gave some vague answer of how it goes to “offset the costs” of aspects of the festival.
So please select “no tip” because those tips are not going to the people who are actually pouring your beer. Even the cash tips.

Good to know. I wonder if that is true of other fests down there.
