No Sympathy
Commenters weren’t very sympathetic. One pointed out the total wasn’t correct, and the women paid 300 over. Another said karma for ordering the most expensive stuff on someone else’s dollar in this economy. A third agreed, calling it crazy to order the most expensive thing on the menu when someone offers to pay. A fourth wrote “Slaaaaaay kings,” and a fifth called the guys “absolute legends.”
The trend of girls ordering expensive drinks when guys offer to pay has been on TikTok. The women in the video decided to join in and ordered Grey Goose and Belvedere, the most expensive options on the menu. After the men saw what they ordered, they said they had to go to their car and never came back. The bill included the men’s drinks, and the women had no choice but to pay.
‘Had No Choice But To Pay’
The TikToker explained the incident happened in Mykonos with her friend. Two guys at the next table offered to buy them drinks. They joined in on the trend and ordered the most expensive drinks. The men then left, saying they had to go to their car. They never returned, and the women were charged for both their drinks and the men’s. The waiter said the men had told him they were paying for everything. The women had no choice but to pay.
The TikToker posted the story because it was bizarre and funny. She didn’t expect it to go viral. The video sparked reactions from people who shared similar experiences. She found it fun to see everyone’s reactions, even though the situation was frustrating.
Why You Should Always Close Your Bar Tab Before Leaving
BroBible has reported on people walking out of bars without paying their tabs. One TikTok user, @heathston, admitted to always leaving without closing their tab. “They’re just gonna charge you a 20% tip,” he said, “Which is what I was gonna do anyways.”
Bartender Elissa Dunn warned against this. She said her bar adds an automatic 20% gratuity if you walk out on your tab, which is not the norm. She also pointed out that some people are freezing or disabling their cards after leaving, which could lead to bars taking physical cards again.
Guys Tell Women At The Bar The Drinks Are On Them—Then They Walk Out
The story highlights a growing trend of people taking advantage of others’ generosity. The women in the video were charged for drinks they didn’t order, and the men never returned. The incident sparked debate about whether the women were naive or if the men were scammers.
Some users said the women should have known better, while others sympathized with their situation. The video shows how easily people can be taken advantage of in social settings, especially when they’re drinking.
