Keep The Tip

An Australian man, out for the evening at the local pub, made sure he left a nice tip when he left. In fact, it was more than just a mere tip.

It was the whole finger.

SYDNEY, Australia - A man who lost part of his finger in a bar brawl walked out of the pub and down the street before he noticed it was gone, police said Monday.

"He didn't know it was missing until he left the (pub)," police Inspector Mark Kellert told The Sydney Morning Herald newspaper. "He was out on the street and realized there was blood on his hand, noticed his finger was missing, and went to hospital."

Security guards later found the severed finger "and a large amount of blood" in the pub's bathroom, New South Wales state police said in a statement.

Well, we rather suspect there were copious quantities of alcohol involved here. We'd personally notice missing body parts if we were sober. We're pretty sure we'd even notice them if we were drunk. At least if we had to scratch our nose.
