A guy walks into a bar, and pays his server double the total. That\u2019s it. That\u2019s the end of this blessedly simple story Chris Young told on social media on Thursday night (Dec. 26).<\/p>\n

The receipt he shared on his socials doesn\u2019t show where <\/em>he did it, or what he\u2019d ordered, but it does show that when his check came for $187, he tipped his server $187. (That\u2019s 100 percent, for anyone like me who just isn\u2019t wired for math.)<\/p>\n

Sorry to @JeffJohnsonFilm<\/a> @tylerreeve<\/a> for not posting earlier (I\u2019ve been hanging with family), but I love this idea of supporting the service industry!!!! #100percenttipchallenge<\/a> I challenge @ChaseRiceMusic<\/a> and @BradPaisley<\/a> to get out there and make someone\u2019s day pic.twitter.com\/7QLirtTvLT<\/a><\/p>\n

Young was asked to participate in this new #100percenttipchallenge by his friends, director Jeff Johnson and country newcomer Tyler Reeve. And now he\u2019s asking his own artist friends to follow his generous lead. \u201cI challenge @ChaseRiceMusic and @BradPaisley to get out there and make someone\u2019s day,\u201d Young wrote. <\/p>\n

If Paisley and Rice both accepted the challenge, that would mean two more servers would be blown away. And then if they each challenged two more country artists, four more servers would be equally thrilled. And on and on and on and on like that exponentially. It would be a trend very worthy of trending. <\/p>\n

And if this big-tip movement continues, who knows how far the chain of love could keep going?<\/p>\n
