Everyone's favorite Vice President and perennial cheapskate, Dan Quayle, made news at Dempsey's Diner in February of 1992. Quayle bought a cup of coffee and left no tip whatsoever. The Vice President had just come from a $500 a plate fundraiser at the Hotel DuPont. (Wilmington News-Journal, 10/24/92)
