Nineteen-year-old Joey Prusak was working the till at a Dairy
Queen near Minneapolis in 2013 when he noticed a blind customer drop a $20 bill. “The lady
behind him saw it and picked it up really quick,” Joey reports. He asked the
woman to return the money, but she refused, saying it was hers. Joey told the woman, “Ma'am, you can either return the twenty or you can
leave, because I’m not going to serve someone as disrespectful as you.” After she
left, Joey took twenty dollars from his own wallet and gave it to the blind man. “I was
just doing what I thought was right. I did it without even really thinking
about it.” Another customer was so impressed, she shared the story on the DQ
website. After that Joey, an amateur racer, started getting lots of attention;
including an offer to attend the Daytona 500 as Kevin Harvick’s guest.
