She came into my restaurant in Nashville with a very large party and ordered veggie fajitas. Nothing changed or modified, got everything just as it came. Asked for a box for her leftovers.

"I was working as a cocktail waitress in the '80s in Merrillville, IN, when Irene Cara was the headliner. She came in with several others a few minutes before closing.

I cleaned up the mess, got them all new drinks, and didn't get home until after 4 a.m. They left a ZERO tip!" Chad Buchanan / Getty Images -Anonymous, 66, Montrose, CO 9. "Back in the '80s, I was a doorman at a posh Philadelphia hotel. Larry Holmes was an expected guest. Upon his arrival, he checked his bags and went to the hotel restaurant. He was a really nice guy. They had a tie policy for men at the restaurant. My idiot British bosses didn't recognize him and asked him to leave the restaurant. Larry was upset, had me get his bags, gave me $50, and went to the hotel across the street. My boss had the nerve to be mad at me for not telling them who he was."
