More Than Half Of Americans Have A Negative View On Tipping
Tipping is something we all either deal with or are ok with. Why? Because if the service is great, your server deserves a little extra for their hard work. Well believe it or not, more than half of Americans have a negative view on tipping.

A survey taken showed that 66% of Americans have a negative view on the situation.
41% of people don’t like that businesses underpay their staff so they’re are kind of forced to rely on tips to make money.
32% of Americans also don’t like pre-entered or suggested tip screens at your local coffee shops or counter services food places.
15% of the people surveyed said they’re get confused on how much to tip or when to tip. This includes hotel services, food delivery services, takeout, rideshare drivers, home services, furniture delivery, and even repair services.
Now 30% said they think tipping has gotten out of control all together. But 16% of people said they’d be willing to pay higher prices if they would get rid of tipping totally.

Wacky And Weird Hockey Superstitions
Wayne Gretzky Needs His Baby Powder
“The Great One,” Wayne Gretzky, would powder the blade of his hockey sticks with baby powder before each game. Some of his other superstitions include never getting his hair cut while on a road trip. In warm-ups, he would purposely miss his first shot wide to the right of the goal. Then, after warm-ups, he would always take drinks in this specific order: Diet Coke, water, Gatorade, and then he’d throw back another Diet Coke.

Patrick Roy And His Goal Posts
This four-time Stanley Cup-winning goalie used to talk to his goal posts. Yup. Apparently, Roy felt that conversing with these inanimate objects would improve his play. And, the goal posts would be more apt to be on his side. Hard to argue with a Hall of Fame goalie.

Brendan Shanahan Loves Madonna
This NHL Hall of Fame forward is now the President of the Toronto Maple Leafs franchise. Back during his professional career, he always wore the shoulder pads from his junior hockey days. He also made sure he listened to at least one Madonna song before each game. I guess he had to get “Into The Groove.”

Joe Nieuwendyk's Pre-Game Meal
Here’s another hockey Hall of Fame forward who had a weird hockey superstition. Before each game, Nieuwendyk ate two pieces of toast topped with peanut butter. Not one. Not three. Two. I wonder if he ate toast topped with jelly or jam after the game.

Sidney Crosby Says "Don't Touch My Sticks"
One of the most heralded draft prospects in NHL history, “The Next One” (in reference to being the next greatest player to Wayne Gretzky), or “Sid The Kid,” is no longer a kid. He’s 35-years-old now. He is a gentlemanly player, but if you touch his hockey sticks after he has taped them up before a game, he’s not going to be happy. In fact, he will take all of the tape off of the stick you touched, and re-tape it. He also has a superstition of NOT calling his Mom on game days.
