According to media sources, the waitress explains how a very ‘kindhearted’ and generous customer gave her a massive tip. In particular, she explains how the staggering amount comprised of a grand total of $2000. However, she never received that tip.
Thanks to her working place, she complains how the management refuses to give her anything from that tip. At the same time, the restaurant’s management has its own shocking side of the story.

Also, Baugher explained how she was helpless in her argument as the management refused to listen.
Restaurant management brings up a new clause
The management of the Texas restaurant was pretty quick at claiming how they never received any tip in the first place.point 250 |

To everyone’s surprise, they simply declined to do so. It was truly a baffling moment indeed.
Today, the drama further unfolds as the Texas restaurant makes new harrowing twists. Now, they allege on their Facebook page how the customer’s credit card actually declined the $2000 tip. For this reason, they had no option left. They simply couldn’t hand over the cash to Bauer.
“Visa couldn’t force a $2000 tip upon his card.point 164 | It was invalid and hence it declined.point 195 | Therefore, we also can’t charge the same card four times as it’s not possible and considered fraud.point 290 |
” There was even a picture as proof, showing how the only payment that actually went through was $69, for his meal.point 100 | Clearly, it’s a mystery that remains unsolved and one incident that the waitress can’t get past.point 195 | 1
