Post Malone Leaves a $1,200 Tip at Pizza Hut After They Open Early Just for Him
When it comes to spreading kindness, Post Malone is leading the way. The rapper, known for his chart-topping hits and signature style, has now added another generous act to his growing list of heartwarming deeds. This time, he left a jaw-dropping $1,200 tip at a Pizza Hut in Cottonwood Heights, Utah—after they agreed to open a half-hour early just for him.
It all went down this past Saturday morning, when Post, who has a home in Utah (he’s even called it “the most amazing place ever”), knocked on the door of the Pizza Hut around 9:30 a.m. The restaurant doesn’t open until 10:00 a.m. on Saturdays, but when the manager, Kolby Aguila, saw the star standing outside, he wasn’t about to turn him away.
“I didn’t think it was him at first,” Kolby admitted, noting he had been a fan of Post since middle school. But when Post asked if the restaurant was open yet, Kolby responded, “We can be open for YOU.” And that’s when the magic happened.
Post ordered some pizzas and wings, and Kolby, not wanting to charge him, offered the meal on the house. Post, ever the generous soul, pulled out all the cash from his wallet—$1,200—and handed it to Kolby as a tip.
In a true act of kindness, Kolby kept $800 for himself but gave the remaining $400 to his co-worker, who was struggling with medical bills. Kolby described Post as “a really genuine person” and “one of the coolest dudes” he’s ever met.
This is just the latest in a series of good deeds from the “Circles” hitmaker. Last Christmas Eve, Post tipped a single mom $20,000, proving that generosity is his trademark. Whether he’s dropping big tips or simply being a kind soul, Post Malone continues to set an example of how a little kindness can go a long way.
