Michigan fans leave $3,000 tip at Utah bar (Photos)
A season-opening loss at Utah wasn’t going to get in the way of the giving spirit of a group of Michigan fans.
According to Fox 13, the group stopped by Bourbon House in Salt Lake City Thursday night after the Utes knocked off the Wolverines, 24-17. After a racking up a $505 bill of food and drinks, one of the Michigan fans left a whopping $3,000 tip.

The group’s server, Breanne Snow, was in shock.
“I went and cried in the corner for a couple minutes,” Snow told the Salt Lake Tribune.
Snow said she and her boyfriend both work two jobs to make ends meet and pay off some debt.
“We’re working so hard and never see the payout from it. It came as such a relief. He could have picked anyone else in there, and for him to pick me, it meant a lot because we were working so hard,” Snow said.
Snow isn’t the first to be on the receiving end of the group’s generosity. They pointed her to an Instagram account called “tipsforjesus,” where her photo, along with dozens of others, was posted along with the receipt of the tip.
And for Snow, it was refreshing to see such a random act of kindness.
“I’ve always wanted to be one of those people that give. I always wish that I have the capacity to do that,” Snow told Fox 13. “And to so generously see that from someone else, a random act of kindness, there’s nothing that hits more home. There’s not a word for it. A ‘thank you’ is not enough.”
