Re: $31 or $131
[ QUOTE ]
You organize a get-together at a sports bar to watch a college sporting event...~150 people the bar would never have there on Friday night.
The owner brings you a beer on the house during the night to show his thanks.
Your group of 4 runs up a tab of $131.
The waitress brings you a credit card slip to sign that says $31.
Sign and leave or say something?

What was the owner like? Was he a nice guy trying to run a bar where people could have a good time along with him making a good profit as well?
Or was he a guy where you were a little offended by his "generosity" of giving you one free beer for all the business you brought him for the night? If it were me, I would rather he not given me attention at all, rather than giving me a free pint.
In my mind, a "sports bar" is a decent-sized place that brings in a lot of clientele on a regular basis, but the way you talk indactes that a genuinely nice guy runs the place, it's not that big, and that he gave you the beer as a sincere gesture of appreciation.
In that case, I'd correct the mistake and pay up no problem. If it were a Scores or something, F-em.
