FLORIDA MAN CHARGED AFTER TRYING TO PAY HIS TAB WITH DAVE & BUSTER'S TICKETS The bill came to $86, the waiter waited, and he reached into a gym bag and slid over a four-foot ribbon of arcade tickets like it was a money order. KISSIMMEE, FL — Local resident Brad Tilley, 37, was charged Saturday after attempting to settle an $86 bar tab with roughly 11,000 Dave & Buster's arcade tickets he had been collecting "as a backup currency." Tilley laid the ticket roll across the bar and announced the exchange rate was "obviously favorable" He insisted the tickets were "redeemable for a giant teddy bear" and therefore "had real-world value" Staff say he had pre-counted them and clipped a sticky note reading "tip included" to the end of the roll He offered to throw in "500 more for the inconvenience" when the bartender refused When officers arrived, he asked if the squad car "took tickets for parking" A patron at the end of the bar told reporters he has been a regular for years and never watched a man try to negotiate a tab like he was cashing out at a prize counter. "In 23 years I have seen a lot of bad payment ideas, but never 'suspect attempted to pay in arcade tickets,'" said Officer Dana Reyes, reading the report. The ticket roll was confiscated. The teddy bear was never located. Images and full story copyrighted TBC Viral Media 2026. #funny #comedy #fblifestyle #satire #FORENTERTAINMENTONLY
