874...$29,387 Tip

If you were ever a server or a bartender you know that is a big motherf'ing tip.

That's a down payment on a house. Or, if you live in a small town, that is a house.

That is the gratuity that the South Bend Tribune reports that Sara Gaspar recieved on her cheque from Notre Dame, a local university in South Bend, best known for their losing football team, in mid April of this year.

Turned out that the grat was supposed to be for $29.87 not $29,387.00.

Miss Gaspar says that when she got the cheque she called the uni and was told by her supervisors that the check wasn't a mistake. She then spent the money on little things like bills and buying a new car. Now Notre Dame, the home of the losing football team, that Notre Dame, wants the money back. Miss Gaspar's attorney says so sad, too bad.

I think that the whole thing is karma for Notre Dame having a nickname that is negative towards my people: The Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
