“@donniewahlberg starting 2020 off like the amazing man he is,” Jenny captioned a photo of the receipt, which included the words “Thanks Bethany,” “2020 Tip Challenge” and “Happy new year.”
“I’ve loved Donnie my whole life—I was a very big New Kids on the Block fan when I was a kid. I didn’t want to freak out at the table, so I went into the bathroom and freaked out a little. I was like, ‘oh my god!’ I served them the best I could do. He folded up the receipt and he gave it to me, and told me not to open it until he left. I said ‘okay, thank you, guys, come again. I’ll take care of you again.’ Then I open it, and I almost fell to the floor,” server Bethany Provencher told People.
