The next time you go out to eat in Shreveport or anywhere in the ArkLaTex, don’t show up in flip-flops and a tank top.  A study found dressing up might get you better service . . .

Researchers at the University of Missouri had 222 waiters and waitresses look at pictures of random people, and guess whether each person would leave a good tip or not.

It turned out they were much more likely to assume they’d get a good tip from people in dress clothes.  So if you dress up, you might get treated better.

It could make an even bigger difference for guys.  Well-dressed men were seen as the best tippers.  And guys who dressed casually were expected to leave the worst tips.
