It started like any other day at Michael’s Bar & Grill on Manchester Avenue in St. Louis, Missouri, a local business known more for its quality service for 46 years.
On Oct. 14, a man then came in and ordered a hamburger with a couple of side dishes, and even paid his tab with a $1000 bill before leaving. The only issue is that no such bill exists. Recalling the dine-and-dash incident, Kristina Moriarty of Michael’s Bar and Grill said that the man asked the server at the end of his meal if she could give him change for a $100 bill, as his total had come to $40. But right when the server went to retrieve the change, the man dropped a counterfeit $1,000 bill that looked almost like a real $100 bill and drove off in his Lexus.
