Chad Johnson blesses restaurant server ‘$100 for every minute’ kept past closing time
Sure, Chad Johnson is known for his on the field antics as a former wide receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals, New England Patriots and the Miami Dolphins. And then there’s that strange stretch of time he changed his name to Ochocinco.
But he’s also known for his generosity, especially during this global COVID-19 pandemic.
And he’s at it again.
Johnson posted on Twitter that he was headed to a favorite restaurant of his and for every minute after 10 p.m. (closing time) he remained, he would pay his server $100.
After all was said and done, Johnson ended up spending 13 minutes past closing andleft his server a generous $1,300 tip.
Back in May, Johnson did the same thing at the same restaurant and Havana’s Cuban Cuisine posted the receipt on their Instagram page.
“Congrats on re-opening, sorry about the pandemic,” Johnson wrote under the $1,000 tip he left on a $34.40 ticket. “Hope this helps. ‘I LOVE YOU.’”
