My father was a stagehand and loved when Dolly had a show in town. She loved tipping and gave my dad like 50 the first time she was there (a lot for a stagehand that doesn't get tipped)
So he took mother out for a fancy dinner and a babysitter for us.
Next time she comes in, he thanks her, telling her it let him get a babysitter for the twins and a nice dinner for his wife.
She tipped him three times as much every time after that!
