Waiter Calls Foul on LeBron James
Posted May 9th 2008 10:11AM by TMZ Staff

Cleveland Cavalier LeBron James recently dined at Cleveland's XO Prime Steaks where he ate like a king, but tipped like a servant.

According to Cleveland Scene, LeBron and a few friends stopped by the restaurant for a late night bite. The group stayed well past closing time, until nearly 4:00 AM, ordering drinks and racking up an $800 bill. When it came time to pay up, LeBron allegedly left a measly $10 tip. Brick!

Maybe LeBron should take a lesson in tipping from Barack Obama.

Calls to LeBron's rep were not returned.

ya thats pretty bad, atleast give the 15%..

i remember hearing kobe tipped a valet $100

i guess lebron is saving up to buy the cavs and then fire that horrible front office, and his offense-deficient coach!

i wouldn't leave a tip after a late night munchie either if my tab totaled over $800. Sounds like this chick needs to talk to her boss, sounds like he made a nice come up. i mean come on, bron prolly said lets go grab a burger...and after all is said and done he's hit with a $800 bill...he'll never be the richest man in the world at that rate...$800 a night just for a late night munch. anyways we all found out LeBron was a jerk when he threw that steak across the restraunt cause it was over cooked....

gratuity only include when your with a group of people..

Lebron should have left a 19% tip...because that's his FG% in the first two games against Boston.... but I guess with a few more bricks he can get closer to the 1% tip he left hahaha

Tipping is the greatest sham in american history, I love it when I travel overseas and tipping wasn't a requirement.

LeBron should have left a 19% tip....matching his shooting %. I think that's fair.

All kidding aside..I think he was with a group so I'm assuming it was included...and someone is just looking for publicity.

overseas (at least in western europe), the tip is included in the bill. so in a way, you're paying for it also

[kwajo]

If I were LeBron I wouldn't have tipped much either, not on an $800 bill.

But then again I'm not in the States, where everyone is obsessed with tipping.
Bunch of weirdos.

gratuity is usually only added to parties of 6 or more....and in nice steakhouses meals can easily reach that especially if you are ordering wine, etc.

i have 2 friends that both work at really nice restaurants out here in AZ....both of them within the same week had a tables with bills over $2000. One table i remember was a $750 and two $400 bottles of wine.....and then the friggin chick threw up all over the table, etc...what a waste! hahaha

anyway, with a few people those meals can get expensive real quick and the servers usually make bank....except the one in the article supposedly.
