After making headlines for doing a dine and dash at a Springfield, Missouri restaurant, The Kid Laroi has attempted to rectify the situation with a hefty tip.

ICYMI: TMZ reported on Thursday that LAROI (real name Charlton Kenneth Jeffrey Howard), was dining at Dublin’s Pass Irish Pub & Restaurant with friends following his show at Southern Bank Arena on Tuesday night.

According to the restaurant's manager, Autumn Gray, the group ordered two cheeseburgers, chicken wings, three orders of mac and cheese, a salad and two brownies, and took frequent smoke breaks outside throughout the evening - but assured staff they would not run out on the bill.

However, when their waitress returned to their table to clear their plates, they discovered that LAROI and his pals had vanished without paying their bill or tipping their server.

Catching wind of the news after it made the rounds, LAROI’s team made contact with the restaurant to pay their bill. To make up for the accidental dine and dash, he also left a hefty tip of $2500 for their server, as per TMZ.

The incident comes following LAROI's recent performance at Coachella 2023, where he gave a touching tribute to the late Juice WRLD and Saiko

“This wasn’t in the release plans, but I played it this weekend at Coachella,” he posted on social media, “and I just felt like the time was right for some reason.”
