Maybe it’s my age. I saw something this weekend in San Francisco I have never seen before. We had breakfast at Plow in Potrero Hill and I was waiting to use the men’s room. There was a four-top near the bathroom seated with two couples who were obvious friends. They were just wrapping up their meal as the check arrived.
Each of the men pulled out their wallets and placed a credit card on the check tray. I assumed they were just going to split the bill. When the waitress arrived, one of the men said to her, “Take both of these cards and then close your eyes and pick one. The card you choose pays the bill.” What is this, Visa Roulette?” I figured they were just joking.
A few minutes later, the waitress returns with with both cards and just one receipt. The guy who gave the instructions to the waitress looks at the receipt, breathes a sign of relief, and says to his friend, “Thanks for breakfast!”
Have you ever seen this before?
