LeSean McCoy, the Philadelphia Eagles star running back, and three friends reportedly stiffed a waiter this week at a popular Philadelphia restaurant, leaving the server a measly 20 cents on a $60 lunch bill.

PYT restaurant in Philadelphia posted a photo of the restaurant receipt to its Facebook page Monday and detailed just exactly what happened when the NFL player came in for a meal.

"As soon as they sat down, they were pretty rude," Rob Knelly, McCoy's waiter, told the Star-Ledger. "I asked some questions, they weren't really responsive. They were cursing, making derogatory comments. I put their order in and forgot one of their appetizers, which I apologized for. They ordered things, and once they got it, said 'We ain't eating this (bleep). We don't want it.'"

In the end, Knelly received 20 cents on a $61.56 bill.

Philadelphia Daily News writer Les Bowen was able to get McCoy's side of the story . . . kind of.





The restaurant took some hits from angry Facebook users for posting McCoy's receipt online.

"I find it very disturbing that a business would post something like this about a customer," one Facebooker wrote. "If he did only tip 20 cents, I could see an immature, teenage waiter posting this pic on his personal page but for all you know, he also left a $100 bill. I frequent the Piazza and will no longer patronize your business and will discourage my friends from going there as well."
