I would've guessed that instead of getting drunk and belligerent, it'd be better to get drunk and insanely generous. Apparently not.

A guy named Joel Boyers was at a bar in downtown Nashville, Tennessee on Monday, and he was so drunk that he kept giving the servers huge tips. Over the course of his time there, he tipped $22,000.

But, he'd also been texting his friends strange stuff, about how he'd taken drugs that, quote, "increased his intelligence" and he was carrying a gun. They were worried, so they called the cops.

When the cops got there, the managers at the bar said Joel was causing a disruption because his giant tips were making the servers fight over who'd get to serve him.

So he was arrested for public intoxication and possession of a firearm while intoxicated. I guess next time he should tip less and not talk to his friends.
