Default Is this today's Urban Legend in TV

My other half just came in from pumping gas and the guy at the next pump asked him if he had heard the story about a man who went into Arnold Palmer last evening and singled out three men and left them with an envelope. Supposedly $10K in each envelope! Why, because they were not wearing shorts or a baseball cap while dining.

Anyone heard anything or is this a gotcha!

It was because they were drinking ice tea mixed with lemonade. Always forget the name.

Like anybody dining at APs needs the money. If true which I doubt, IMO money would of been better served to homeless families living in cardboard houses.

In any event, a mesley $10K would not be worth it if I had to put on long pants and remove the baseball hat which is pretty much glued to my head.

For $25K, I would think about it.

It's true. But don't expect me to be as generous the next time.

I always take my shorts off at AP's. Would I have been given $5000?

Over the years I have always found that stories from complete strangers pumping gas are always reliable.
