Amy Schumer Joins the Giant Tippers Club with 1k Bar Tip

This weekend Amy Schumer went to see Broadway musical sensation “Hamilton.”  The show is the hottest ticket in town with audience members paying anywhere from $500 to $1000 or even more to score a seat.  Amy and her sister, boyfriend and friends had a blast and posted for photos backstage, but that’s not what has Schumer in the news today.

According to the social media accounts of several bartenders at the Broadway show, Schumer had such a good time that she left a bartender a $1,000 tip on a $77 bar bill.  Bartender Madeleine DeJohn posted on her Instagram a photo of a receipt showing the extreme tip, although admittedly the signature doesn’t look like it says Amy or Schumer. DeJohn posted, “And then @amyschumer comes into your work and does something amazing #hamilton #amyschumer.” DeJohn isn’t the only one excited, Hamilton’s bartenders pool their tips. Sarah Laursen also posted the receipt, looking like the proud holders of a winning lottery ticket.

Schumer just announced an all-arena tour of the US.
