According to PYT owner Tommy Up, McCoy and three others dined at the restaurant Monday and “immediately the whole staff was excited.”

Up, in a post on Facebook explaining the situation, said the party of four was given “excellent service” but despite that, McCoy and the group was verbally abusive to the staff “in the most insulting ways.”

Server Rob Knelly told the Star Ledger that McCoy and his group were rude as soon as they sat down.

After McCoy and the group left, Up said he looked over and saw the server with a confused look on his face.

“I took the receipt out of his hand and I couldn’t believe that anyone could be so callous,” Up said, noting the $0.20 tip was just .03 percent. “Twenty cents that our server has to split with the food runner and the bartender. Two dimes from an insulting multimillionaire.”

McCoy hasn’t commented publicly about the incident.
