Jackson, also a former Riverdale High standout, was called out Sunday on Twitter by a waiter at a New Orleans restaurant after Jackson tipped him just $5 on a $120 bill.

Jackson, who signed a 4-year, $4.8 million deal, tweeted back a reaction that he should have let somebody read before he hit the send button.

He tweeted, "You got 5 more dollars then you had be grateful."

What kind of service did the person provide? Considering they took to twitter to seek attention, I'm going to say not great.

I wish social media was around back when I was in school. TO Just signed his 49 million dollar contract with eagles a month or so prior and tipped my bartenders $.50 after they made him 80 mixed shots

But I'm sure it was justified because the shots were not a perfect mixture or service was slow.

No he was being a dick. it was an NFL party, meaning players and guest. his guest was a body guard. He also asked to sneak out the back gate so he wouldnt be bothered, bodyguard spoke for him and ordered his drinks(even though he was next to him), etc...

LSU fans can always count on tFarmer from Spring, TX to come with the LSU news, a few days late.

It was sarcasm, any NFL star is going to get great service 99% of the time. Even if he didn't, it really doesn't justify that tip anyway.

Actually, more than likely they got $2 from it after their tip out at the end of the night, and depending on the % of their tip out, they may have lost money. He was probably there an hour and half. That's an hour and a half they could've been serving someone else that wasn't a cheap arse.

Sign a $5 million contract and can't even leave %18? Yeah, he's got no business telling someone else to be grateful

Que the dipshits who have never waited a day in their life and think a waiter sucks if they don't get treated like the king of the restaurant.

I know. Luckily the other guys tipped well. We even had some bench warmer OL(came from LSU, dont remember name) He realized he didnt tip a whole lot, asked to run again for a dollar so he could tip another $100. Clinton portis tipped $500 on about $100 as well

Que the wait-staff dipshits that think they are entitled to 20% no matter how bad they suck at their job.

If the guy was complaining about a 10% tip or something like that I could see your point in bringing that up.

If the service was terrible I don't blame him.

And the waiter should be out of a job for posting it on social media.

Maybe the guy gave his twitter post more attention than the table?
